Photographer Minh Hai started exploring his craft very late at the age of 58. From being a teacher and a businesswoman, she took the camera and couldn’t let it go.

Without attending any classes, Mrs. Minh Hai has journeyed and learned by herself, through books, and with friends. She has gained a number of achievements, and is highly praised by photographers and friends even though she considers herself an amateur.
