Today (September 18th) I went to the Hong Kong Shark Foundation (HKSF) to do a small photo shoot for posters targeted towards students to try and get them involved in the cause of shark finning. It was a bit out of my comfort zone I'll admit but I have believed strongly in this cause for a long time so naturally I was straight in there to sign up and luckily I got a place!Â
The posters were aiming to get students aware of the cause, and get them to involve themselves in improving the situation by writing to the government, and asking them to ban the practice.Â
This was out of my conform zone because I prefer being 'behind the scenes' rather than in the foreground. I am in no way comfortable being photographed or in any kind of spot light, so to do something like this was unusual for me. I am happy I did it though because it's such an important cause and I hope to continue working with them in the future as I have done in the past.Â
