Exhibition of photographs Alliance Francaise de Colombo has organised an Exhibition of
Photographs by Renuka Weligodage and Bandula Jayaneththi at the Alliance
Auditorium. The opening of this exhibition will be on Friday December 14,
2001 at 6 pm and it will be open to the public till December 20 from 10 am
to 6 pm each day. Renuka Weligodage studied the ABC of photography from the Photography Development Foundation, Kadawatha in 1994. She has been a member of the Sri Lanka Young Zoologist Association, Dehiwala National Zoological Garden since 1995. The influence of learning from there, turns her lenses to grasp the beauty of nature. Field trips, photography exhibitions, guidance and counselling in the same sphere, led her to gain experience and develop her skills and technics. In this exhibition, Renuka aims to give the message about the disaster
of deforestation and the awful situation of wildlife in Sri Lanka. This is not her individual effort, this is a harmonious effort with
another nature-sensitive photographer from the Young Zoologist
Association, where they follow the same motto. "Master of nature is itself, man is only a tiny part of it." Bandula Jayaneththi, aged 21, shows the sign of a rising star in a field of nature photography. He is an old boy of D S Senanayake College and was also an active member of School's Nature Club. He is an active field participant and a Member of Young Zoologists Association of Sri Lanka Young Biologist Association and Field Ornithology Group of Sri Lanka. The valuable experience he gained through these associations inspired him to start nature photography at a very young age. He is presently following the certificate course in wildlife
conservation and management at open university of Sri Lanka.
