Photographing animals
Photographer James Warwick visits Kenya and Namibia and has just returned from India. James didn't find photography interesting but on holiday in Africa during university, he decided on his future job.
James has to get up early for most of his African pictures. He takes a few when the sun is going down, but in the afternoon the light is too strong. Being a photographer is a hard work. Some photographers visit different places on one trip, but James prefers to stay in one place and learn all about it.
He has some wonderful pictures of Indian tigers. Once, two tigers ran past him, stopped a meter away from his truck and began to fight. He was too afraid to photograph them. In Namibia one lion came even closer. It went all way around James's truck checking for danger. Then it got up on the back andlooked at him through the window. This was one of James's happiest moments.
James doesn't use his flat in Britain much. He doesn't mind living out of a suitcase, but he sometimes finds life hard without his friends. Money isn't very important for him, but he likes travelling. His pictures make people think about animals in danger, from African elephants to Britain birds. This is what matters most to him.

Television has become an integral part of our lives, but it is often criticized for its content. In my opinion, to make TV better, the quality of the programming must be improved. There should be more educational and informative programs that can teach people about different aspects of life, culture, history, and science. The programs should be engaging and thought-provoking, rather than just entertaining. Moreover, TV channels should be more responsible and careful about the content they broadcast. They should avoid showing violence, vulgar language, and obscene images. Finally, TV viewers also have a role to play in making TV better. We should be more selective and choose programs that are meaningful and have a positive impact on our lives. We should also be critical of what we watch and raise our voices when we find something unacceptable. By taking these steps, we can make our TV better and more beneficial for everyone.
