25 Years of the International Photojournalism Festival Visa Pour l’Image: a Tribute to Jean-François Leroy

1990 Visa d'or Feature: Eric Valli & Diane Summers. “I took this picture while living with the Gurung Honey Hunters in Nepal from 1986-1987, one of my first great adventures in the Himalayan mountains. Seen here is Mani-Lal harvesting the honey of the Apis Dorsata, which make their nests in the cliffs about 2500m high. The Visa Pour l'Image award was very meaningful and encouraging for me as a young photographer then. It was when I first came to know Jean-François Leroy and saw his relentless dedication to the world of photojournalism. Thanks to him, his sincerity, his courage and his passion, the festival became the showcase for many unknown talents from all over the world”. – Eric Valli. (Photo by Eric Valli/Diane Summers)
