Everyone has got a song that belongs in their heart, photography is my song

“Everyone has got a song that belongs in their heart, photography is my song” words by Emmanuel Santos, one of 7 Australian photographers featured in this extraordinary documentary “Language of Light” now streaming on SBS on demand. 

Each episode delves into the life’s work of a particular photographer, following their journey of photography and a diversity of life experiences that ignited and shaped their passion and resultant career. 

The landscape of the back country and its people is a source of great inspiration for many a photographer in this region. 

“Language of Light” is a must-see for you and anyone who recognizes elements around them that they feel drawn to follow. 

This documentary tells the stories of photographers but its message is intended for everyone…….

Is it something you see on your daily walks, in the people you meet or something that perhaps is invisible but can be felt? These sparks that ignite us ……like fireflies that move and capture our attention and awe……pay attention for they can be a catalyst that illuminates the way to the next stepping stone. 

This series inspires and encourages us to ask ourselves “what is that spark that makes me feel alive?” It is often very simple and has been there right in front of you the whole time…..just for fun, follow it and see what unfurls……
