Angelena
/>I am a missionary born in Northern Ireland and living in London for the past 23 years.
This photograph of Angelena was taken while at a Church service in, Nigeria. This was the first time i met her. She was sitting at the back of the church against the wall on a seat all alone. I used full zoom and took over 50 photographs of her. This is the only one that came out good. this was not a planned pose and I caught her like this without her knowing. she was quite a distance from me. I was sitting on the platform waiting to be called to speak.
This young Girl inspired me so much. Her young life is an inspiration to me of how faith and hope can carry us through difficult times.
Angelina is 12 years old . She is one of the children we have been caring for for the past three years. When we found her three years ago she was close to death and without Parents. Three years later she is loved and attends school.
We can and do make a difference to children in extreme poverty and sick. All it takes is Love and a heart of compassion to sow a little time and money into a child’s life and you will see the transformation.
Angelina was dying from malaria when we first saw her. Now she lives a full life. She says she wants to be a doctor and help others who are sick. God bless her and all who helped us in helping her.

Such great news for one beautiful child, but what comes of the others…How far can the project go. Praise be to those who reach out and touch these young hearts to give them a chance in life….Wonderful work you do Trevor… Kindest thoughts as ever, Anna-Marie.

Kindest wishes for all of you there, fare Africa. Is Angelica only one, whom you have been caring for for the past three years. I guess that not. When you found her three years ago she was close to death and without Parents, and three years later she is loved and attends school, what is your school giving more insteed surviving and teaching. Look I am very very alone and I wish to adapt a child. Is adaptetion trough your agency possible also. Kind wishes, you are doing right. Photos are so so beautiful.

This is a great Honour to be featured in British portrait Artists. I really appreciate this very much. Almost all my portraits are taken while the people are on te move. I photograph while in the remote villages and camps. I always use the Canon IF70300 IS USM lens as i can be quite some distance away adn still get clarity. The IS can at times be a hindrence as it focusis on the subject.
I love natural light. Thank you again for this Honour.
