    I LOVE this course. The only thing missing is where to get information on some of the pressing environmental issues. Obviously, following environmental news helps but as a photographer and journalist I want to know about the less covered stories so I can report on them. Any suggestions?

    WOW, I am feeling so inspired after watching Cristina's course in conservation photography. I have been wanting to do this for years, and have been doing it in my own little way. But now I feel I have so many ideas and examples to help me go down this path. Thank you Cristina and Creative Live.

    Congratulations to Cristina for giving us a comprehensive look at the working life of a documentary photographer. Her course is beautifully illustrated with both photos and commentary and shows the constraints (moral and physical and financial) she works under - and towers above. What a great resource this course is. It should be on the curriculum of every school teaching photography.
