p.o.v.
I happened upon a documentary on PBS tonight. "P.O.V. : The Chances of the World Changing", is something to see. It's about writer turned conservationist, Richard Ogust, and his quest to save several hundred turtles from extinction. But there's something more to see here, this man puts himself out there -in the rawest of ways. His passion pours out of the very fiber of his being, more of us should be like him. If you have the opportunity to see it, this film is worth your time.
"I think the film is really about a man whose compassion is so enormous that it leads him into a strange phase of his life, where he's really struggling to figure out how to contain what he feels like he should do about this crisis that he's discovered." ~ Eric Daniel Metzgar (filmmaker, The Chances of the World Changing)

This month I'm hosting Photo Thursdays over at Create a Connection. I posted this week's challenge late last evening, and already Catherine from New Zealand has posted some really beautiful and interesting weather photos. I can't wait to see what everyone else comes up with.
