Behind the Lens
The Photographer
Keoni Ragragio conceptualized Project Kallornis to document his wildlife chase for the elusive and also the common aves of Philippine fauna. A senior high student in La Salle, he started photography when he was 13 years old after his grandfather gave him a Nikon D56. No sooner did he show, not just an aptitude, but a true fervour for avian photography which naturally went hand-in-hand with his love for the environmental sciences. His passion extends to his studies, with a focus on zoology, and a splash of theatre on the side.
