Film Maker’s Story. India.

His Dad gave him First rudimentary camera. Took to the lush jungle Of the sub-continent Like a skipping roebuck. Easily journied As if it were A harmless city sidewalk Free of danger. But danger. Eyes alert always for A shoot, a subject. But also deadly eventualities. Viper constricting Mother tiger with cubs Wild boar Insects with bites insidious Leeches, ticks. Enormous wasps, beetles, stinging ants. Flash floods. Quicksand. Sixth sense to understand The do’s and don’ts All smiling. Waving hello to each Discovered subject. In his Jungle. And National Geographic came calling.

Beautiful daughter of my workplace friend David. Her Name is Keren.

She sings like a free…and happy bird…praises to Jesus…often heard…potential she’s lots of it now…and how David, now a pastor in Texas.

Some feature films never lose out (near to the heart of my Dad. Navigator. He was in Scotland during the Battle of Britain. Up in the air over the North Sea)
