__________________________________________________________
A leader of photo tours to exotic destinations with his company Nomad Photo Expeditions . After years of travelling, he has come to the conclusion that technique and vision are indispensable tools, but that empathy, curiosity, pleasure through personal relationships are the determinants which enable photography to transmit so much more than a post card. As part of his personal work, Harry is currently developing a photographic project, "Les Miserables", related to the work in the bricks factories of Nepal and the spiritual activity at the churches in North Ethiopia.
