"I believe that photography is a powerful tool paired with the collaboration of comitted people to support conservation of cetaceans." 

Photographic images also provide a unique way to enhance the health care environment. Looking at pictures can change emotions that subsequently have a physical effect on the body. It is a scientific fact that patients, surrounded by the right kind of art, feel better and recover faster. 

"Hospitals must keep sight of the softer side of patient care, using design and architecture to create a feeling of wellness. Architectural elements such as large windows admitting natural light, calming colors, aesthetically pleasing artwork and the introduction of nature via plants can minimize the clinical atmosphere and make the stay less traumatic for patient and family members. The Hospital of the future must never lose sight of the human factor, striving for a balance between high-tech and human touch." Pobert P. Walker
