Our mission is to further environnemental and cultural conservation through ethical photography.
The MYN Mission
Meet Your Neighbours is a worldwide photographic initiative dedicated to reconnecting people with the wildlife on their own doorsteps – and enriching their lives in the process. These creatures and plants are vital to people: they represent the first, and for some, the only contact with wild nature we have.
I can't envisage work without a equipment on which I can count at every moment, whatever the environment in which I am and whatever the subject I have in front my eyes.
I found with Canon DSLRs and lens the perfect equipment on which I can count eyes closed.
Still closer to the photographers, I can count on the help and support of the Canon Professional Services in my daily work.

Art Wolfe - Beyond the simple inspiration, it's through these books that I felt the desire to photograph nature.
I seem to have read one of those phrases that could be summarized as:
"It's by the way of beauty that photography can inspires respect, and it's only by the respect that we get involved in conservation."
Frans Lanting - Another great photographer whose work inspired and guided me a lot in my present way.
