Tales by Light Misunderstood Predators Part 1

1) The photographer is Eric Cheng. His main priority is taking pictures of underwater animals. While doing so he uses his underwater camera and scuba dives.

2) Something that I thought was interesting was how Eric got to get so close to the green anaconda.  The anaconda didn't try and acknowledge he was there. All the anaconda did was just going its own destination.

3) I learned there was a myth about why people were being scared about anacondas. There was a god of some sort and he would do good deeds . The police looked at it from a different point of view and arrested him and would beat him. Because of that he released a prophecy that stated when the last cross falls a serpent would come and swallow half of the city of Bonito.

4) It first took place off the coast of Norway during winter.Then he later went to try and take a photos of a anaconda and for that he went to Brazil to capture the green anaconda snake. They started heading toward the Formoso River which is a major river of Bonito. I liked the locations since its not somewhere that's popular or much less anyone has thought of to go and shoot wild animals.


5) The work is important because it gives people a reason to think twice when endangering animals. It can show other people not to be afraid of the myths they have heard over the years. Lastly it gives others a chance to see wild animals up close and a reason for them to pass on that there is nothing to be afraid of.
