Je m'appelle Anne Sorbes et pour me présenter, je ne vous raconterai pas tout mon parcours, ce serait trop long et fastidieux, juste un peu de mon essentiel.
L’événement le plus marquant de ma vie est la naissance de mon fils, David, qui se révéla être autiste. Cette naissance a changé le cours de ma vie car ce sont des enfants qui ont besoin d’une attention constante et j’ai choisi de lui consacrer ce temps. Ce choix a bien sur eu des conséquences sur mon parcours professionnel et ma vie sociale.
David est grand maintenant, c’est un jeune adulte qui malgré sa différence est bien dans sa peau. Il est à la maison, car le manque de structures adaptées est réel. Il est sociable car il a été à l’école avec d’autres enfants, des enfants qui n’avaient pas de handicap. Il a appris à les apprécier et eux ont appris à accepter la Différence. Ils n’auront pas le même regard sur le handicap que leurs parents et c’est important pour l’avenir.
Ce regard, ma fille Annaëlle, légèrement plus jeune l’a et elle a décidé de proposer aux autres sa vision du handicap au travers dans le film qu’elle à conçu pour le BAC (option cinéma). Le sujet est le regard d'une petite fille sur son frère pas comme les autres.
Il nous est venu avec mon mari, Didier, l'idée un peu folle d’élever des chameaux et de créer une ferme thérapeutique et de loisirs pour accueillir des enfants et des adultes handicapés et non handicapés. Cet animal très calme et atypique est un bon médiateur. Il aura fallut une dizaine d’année pour monter ce projet qui est en cours de finalisation.
Au cours de ce projet, j’ai reçu en cadeau d’anniversaire un appareil photo numérique. Il a lui aussi changé le cours de ma vie. J’ai commencé à photographier au cours de mes ballades, la flore, les insectes, la nature qui a toujours été pour moi une source d’inspiration et de réconfort. J’ai remarqué aussi par les réactions de mon entourage que mes photos suscitaient des émotions et cela a été une vraie révélation pour moi. J’ai par la suite investi dans un reflex numérique (Olympus E330) et un objectif macro.
La photo me permet d’exprimer ce que je ressens et de le communiquer aux autres. Elle me permet aussi d’approfondir ma connaissance de la flore et de la faune et des milieux naturels.
La découverte de Flickr, c’est la cerise sur le gâteau, la possibilité pour moi d’entrer en relation avec le monde entier, d’apprécier et de ressentir des émotions en regardant les œuvres des autres, d’apprendre et de partager.
J’ai tant appris et partagé ici que certaines de mes photos sont maintenant en agence et c’est pour moi une grande source de satisfaction d’être parmi de vrais professionnels de la photo, une certaine reconnaissance sociale dont j’avais besoin pour m’épanouir.
Je m’excuse auprès de tous mes amis anglophones mais ma connaissance de l’anglais est par trop sommaire pour pouvoir traduire ce texte et le traducteur me semble peu approprié. Le langage à des limites que la photo n’a pas.
Je remercie tout ceux qui me font le plaisir de me rendre visite et de me commenter et si je ne suis pas trop bavarde, pardonnez-moi, car c’est avec mes photos que je vous parle.
I apologize to all my English-speaking friends but my knowledge of English is by too summary to be able to translate this text and the translator seems to me little suited. The language has limits which the photo does not have.
I thank quite those who please me to visit me and to comment and if I am not too talkative, forgive me, because it is with my photos that I speak to you.

Voici la traduction de mon texte en anglais, réalisée gracieusement et généreusement par Béatrice, une amie de Roy Prasad qui me l'a envoyé. Je les remercie tous les deux de s'être impliquer de cette manière.

My name is Anne Sorbes and to introduce myself -- I won’t subject you to my whole life which would be too boring -- here are just the key elements.
The most important event in my life was giving birth to my son David. David is autistic. His birth changed the course of my life as autistic children require constant attention, and I chose to devote this time to him. Of course this choice had a big impact on my professional and social life.
Today David is grown up. He is a young adult who in spite of his ‘difference’ is well adjusted. He lives at home because of the lack of alternative living options that would suit him better. He is comfortable in social situations as he has been to school with children without handicap. He has learned to appreciate them as they have learned to accept his difference. These children will not have the handicap prejudice their parents had, and that is important for the future.
My younger daughter Annaelle decided to give her own vision of this handicap through a movie she shot for the Baccalaureat (option film-making). It presents the perspective of a young girl looking at her brother’s otherness.
Out of this came an idea, a bit crazy to be sure, that my husband Didier and I decided to set in motion. We decided to create a therapeutic and recreational farm where we welcome children and adults with or without handicaps. On this farm we raise camels. Camels are very calm and an unusually appropriate mediator. It took us ten years to bring this idea to fruition, and we’re still at it finalizing it.
During this project, someone gave me a digital camera for my birthday. This camera changed the course of my life. I started taking photographs during my walks, flowers, insects; nature has always been for me a great source of inspiration and solace. I started noticing that my photos elicited emotional reactions from my friends and family, and this was a revelation for me. Later I invested in the purchase of a digital reflex camera (Olympus E330) and a macro lens.
Photography enables me to express what I feel and to communicate it to others. It also encourages me to grow my understanding of the flora and fauna and nature in general.
Discovering Flickr was the cherry on top of the cake. It is the opportunity to connect with the world at large, to appreciate and feel emotions through the work of others, to learn and to share.
I have learned and shared so well that some of my photos are now carried by photo agencies and it’s a great source of satisfaction for me to be counted among the real professionals in this field; it is a social recognition I needed to blossom.
I apologize to all my English speaking friends but my knowledge of their language is too basic. Language has limitations which photography doesn’t have.
I want to thank all those who come and visit and leave comments; please forgive me if I’m not too talkative, but it is with my photos that I speak to you.
