This woman is a victim of a seemingly never ending war in southern congo. She has suffered sexual violence (rape) so severe it has rendered her incontinent. She now exists purely as a result of a courageous charity called Heal Africa, and indeed her own inner strength and faith. I asked her if I could take her portrait and she stood up (which must have been painful), straightened her back and stared straight down the lens. No stopping to straighten her scarf, no preening, no fear. Just an honesty so raw, so uninhibited and so rare, I caught my breath and thought I’d never breath again. I was totally overpowered by her intensity. After I took the shot and showed it to her she smiled and thanked me. It still gives me a shiver to look at it now. HEAL Africa calendar available now!!!

Diligently reading, and literary captured, / As I, with my foot on my book, observe / A soft beauty, that with a polite air, has raptured / My heart, and be graced my pen, for such I will never deserve. Silently with the scent of perfumed air, / And a slight pinch of luscious lips, / Her passionate determinism is more than I can bare. / Subtle tease, her face hidden, as past her face her hair slips. In sensuous contemplation does her finger turn / From thoughtful chin to provocative lip. / To replace such a delicate finger, do my lips yearn / But will not, in knowing the consequences of such a slip. In graceful affirmation of my attention, / She tousles waves of brown hair / And smiles pleasantly, a sign of my detection. / Disheartedly, I smile as tension fills the air. I open my mouth, and my tongue stalls. / She laughs, nervously, and then her eyes lie. / Looking deep into my soul as I fall / Deep into her’s, eye to eye. Robert L. Bixler III

- Copyright by Mohsen Bayramnejad. has been nominated for the prestigious Pay it Forward Group by one of my favourite photographers, Kevin Skinner / a real honor for me and my simple Image, here is what he said: “The reason for this is a number of reasons. I love B&W imagery and my main passion lies with Intimate Landscape shots. Although this isn’t a Landscape (obviously), it holds the very qualities that I look for in a B&W: contrasts, textures and, most of all, detail. This image stands out from the rest as there is an absolute detail and an ineffable quality that makesit a stunning piece of work. / Also the photographer is a excellent artist and his portfolio is a must to drop by and look at as his people photgraphy is first class. / One of my favourite photographers and one of the reasons why I so glad I joined RB to experience such great work.” Thank You So Much, Kevin! Update: / - featured in the Live, Love, Dream Group. / - Wins the Group Avatar challenge of Pay It Forward group.

A Parents Prayer for their sick child. / (2 Samuel 12:22) David answered: While he was still alive, I went without food and cried because there was still hope. I said to myself, “Who knows? Maybe the LORD will have pity on me and let the child live.” / I am an Irish born Missionary living in London I spend much time living with the Kambari tribe, I get to know first hand the challenges they face each day just to survive. I also have the privilege of capturing not only hunger, sickness and often death, but the more happy occasions. This is Grace, and when I first met Grace in April 2007, she was suffering from Chronic Malnutrition, adn intestinal worm infection. This was taken in December 2007, and the difference in 2009 is wonderful. Thank you to all who prayed and donated towards saving Grace. Please do Pray for these precious suffering people in extreme poverty and for us as we press on in our mission to help them. I believe in the power of Prayer and a mighty God.

/>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. 100% of all proceeds from sales of my art ,donated art, and donations made via Philadelphia Mission Charity website, goes to help extreme poor in Isolated and Rural villages in Africa.

PLEASE READ THIS. Taken in remote Nigeria. I and the team were waiting for the ferry to cross then Nile and continue our long journey to Tunga Zuga Village in kebbe state. Often my work as a missionary, working with extreme poor and sick children can be very emotional.Tears of sorrow and heartbreak, desperation and frustration overwhelm me as I and the small mission team do what we can with the little we have to help. yet there are times like this one when there is joy and happiness as I see people and scenes of great beauty. Truly God has blessed me with a wonderful life. I have never had the joy of owning my own home, or having a nice car or wealth. yet I am so happy to have a relationship with Jesus.God supplies all my needs, and I have travelled with God to many villages and he has blessed many. Life is more than a job,Career, wealth or designer cloths. Life is living in Gods presence everyday and experiencing his love and peace. Life for me is doing what is in Gods heart and that is helping the extreme poor. My Inspiration and passion is from God. I Live for him and he lives through me. I have been on mission and not a penny in my pocket,yet my heavenly father has met my needs,concerning Food,lodging, travel and covered all expenses. One one occasion, he sent an angel to pay my hotel bill. While in India The Lord moved me so much to travel overnight on a train, a day early to return to London. If I had not obeyed his leading, I would have been killed in a terrorist bombing. Its a wonderful Life with God.

[Taken in Natural Light]. Taken on the banks of the river Nile, remote Nigeria. I got into conversation with this Muslim girl and I felt s deep compassion for her, as she said She sells peanuts to get money to help her Grandfather who cares for her and her brother and two sisters. Her mother is dead and when she died the father just left and never returned. She told me that she only sold three packets that day and she was selling from around 10 am to 7pm. She did not make enough even to buy basic foods. She spoke good English so I knew she had had some education. I and my fellow mission workers bought what she had left. Then I asked her If I could pray for her. She said yes. I asked God to open her heard adn reveal himself to her. We led to to Christ. She wept and the lord really did touch her. We now visit her village often. All proceeds from sale of my art, or donations made via our charity website goes to help extreme poor and sick in remote and rural villages of Africa. We do not take anything out of it. I invite all to Please visit Philadelphia Mission Africa Charity website: / http://www.philadelphia33.org/ Camera: Canon EOS 400D.

PLEASE READ THIS DESCRIPTION. [AS IS} / I am a missionary, born in Northern Ireland and living in London. my passion in life is to help the poor in rural and isolated villages in Africa and India. Abhijeet in Hindu language means “one who is victorious, a star”. She certainly lives up to her name. 3 years old and already has faced abuse, and hunger. She was close to death and in much pain. Abijeet is one child we rescued through The INDIAN NEW LIFE MISSION, based in India. Her smile melted my heart and as I was told her story I could not help give God thanks for the few Indian Christians that reached out to her. With little money, they took her into the Orphanage, where now she is cared for. I now have sponsored Abijeet and for only £10 per month, she is fed, clothed and will attend a full education when she is old enough. I do not get financial funding from any Church, My own income is little. But I made my mind up a long time ago to share what God has blessed me with with the poor. I have not gone hungry, nor my family. I rent my home, and drive a car. My children are all educated and blessed by God. I have lacked nothing,because blesses the sower. Gods burning Love and Passion for the outcast and poor burns deep within my heart, and hopefully can be seen throgh my life and camera lens. Abijeet is a shining star and a true testimony of what Love and sharing can do. Please Pray for me, that I can bless many more suffering children like Abijeet. Strengthen my arm in Gods mission to reach the hurting of this world with his love and care. Pray and do what the Lord lays on your heart. You will become richer for it.

kingston usa ** / His name is Jacob, although he said he is also called James. / Why? He said, ‘It’s a name. They are all only names.” / When I asked if I could take his photo, he dropped his dirty plastic bag and without smiling, said, ‘Oh, How pleased I’d be to be caught by you.’ / Jacob/James and I spoke for a while, mostly about his beloved cat, and how she hopped into the shower today. / “I took it as a hint,” he said, almost smiling, but only with his very blue eyes. “So I got in there and washed up me, and thought I might do with a change of clothes, too” / He still carries a slight accent he claims is a hold-over from when he was a young man in Wales. His children are all gone. His wife, long dead. / I thanked him, and was about to go on my way, when he leaned back into the window of my car. / “I want to tell you something important,” he said, his already world-weary expression looking more grim than before, ‘I want you to eat better. I want you to take care of your liver. I want you to always smile like you smile now, and I want you to know that the world may be cold, but somewhere there is sun and warmth. I want you to be happy. It’s what’s intended for you.” / He turned and walked away. I sat there, not knowing what to say, save for some expressions of thanks, that sounded hollow to me, after his wish list stated for me. / I thought of The Bible verse: / “Be not forgetful to entertain strangers; for thereby some have entertained angels unaware..” / / Taken in Kingston, New York / To view more of my images you can go to the link below / Peacefulowl Featured in Image Writing, All About New York State, Black and White Photography, and Insomniacs and Other Night Crawlers / Thank You :-)
