Andres Vanegas Canosa or Andy VC as I know him is a Colombian freelance photographer of Spanish decent. I’ve watched Andy’s adventures through his photography for several years now.
The photos above are taken from his series on leprosy. Some of Andy’s other series are about Laos, Columbia, Vietnam, Afghanistan and Morocco. Andy also has a series on 103 year old people.
The danger inherent in Andy’s work means that he is constantly on the move. In my email today he told me that he is having to move very fast and that even owning a laptop puts him in danger. Fortunately in a few days Andy will be in a much safer country.
I admire Andy’s work and want to share some of it with the reader. You can see more of Andy’s images at http://www.andyvc.com/

Thank you Jim for sharing Andy VC’s work with us. Its wonderful to see how other photographers, artists project are developed, unfold and opportunity to study how their themes. I was fascinated with the ‘hands’ of the 103 year olds.
