Shooting for the China Exploration & Research Society is alway a pleasure. Here I am in a cave, in China - starting a caving film, which I am excited about...
During this trip I also finished filming the St Bernard Mission to Tibet film. It was nice to get the end shots of the St Bernard film, which started with me interviewing a 90 year old St Bernard Priest in Switzerland :o) - and finished in a beautiful part of N. Yunnan - his parish, so many years ago - seeming very much like the Swiss alps.
I particularly liked the Christmas lights around the statue of Christ in the Yunnan church :o)

The film was commissioned to celegrate the Botanic Garden's 150th Anniversary, as a tribute to Singapore's Founding Father Lee Kuan Yew.
We shot a lot of footage! And some of the best nature footage ever taken of Singapore.
I had the great pleasure of working with fellow DP Graham MacFarlane & Director Saritha Wilkinson.
