Come see what he saw from the top of the world see his photos and hear his story about climbing Mt. Everest. SPECIAL FEATURE for Calgary: Seeing life through the lens of a child is a powerful experience. Using a photography workshop, sponsored children, in Bangladesh and Zambia, learned basic composition and photography techniques. Then they took the cameras into their world offering a rare photographic insight into the lives of sponsored children. They captured images of things they want to change and things they are proud of. The result is a celebration of their vision and their enthusiasm. The children were also asked to photograph what they want to share with the world. Now you are invited to share in that experience with them and see how the children look at their world.
