The Beauty Of Uniqueness
I was both touched and moved by the beauty of uniqueness in both nature and humans as was captured in the film. The vulnerability of each man was full of strength that allowed my compassion for the human spirit to flow uninterrupted.
I am grateful for the way in which Wayne
Smith used words and imaginary to invite the audience to see them.
Healing Thru Nature
This was an incredible piece from the film, music, personal messages, and the artistic nature setting inside. I truly enjoyed this incredible piece of work. Thank you!
