Meet Rebecca McQueen, the photographer who lives in Perth, Western Australia. She loves to photograph animals and nature and also does family and baby photography. Sadly, in September 2020, she was diagnosed with stage 4 cancer. This stage means that the cancer has spread to other organs or parts of the body. It is taking her eyesight and her life.
Despite living with cancer, losing her eyesight, and having a short time left to live, she never lets them stop her from living her best life and doing what she loves. We believe that the power of positive thought can help her live longer and bring more stunning photos to everyone.
"Since that horrible diagnosis, I have been losing the vision in my right eye. I believe that the worse my eyesight gets, the better my photography gets - I don't know how or why that is, but I will continue to bring moments of beauty to others with photography for as long as I am able to," she said.
Here are 14 of her best nature photos. Scroll down to enjoy! Don't forget to share them with your friends to make their day! You can contribute to her Go Fund Me.

"In September 2020 I was told I had a 3cm tumor behind my eye, stage 4 Adenoid Cystic Carcinoma, and had only a year to live. I started doing everything I could to bring joy to my life, including buying a camera to take up photography. I discovered a passion for capturing nature's precious moments and spent a lot of my time searching and waiting for the next beautiful shot. Being completely present in each moment and capturing the beauty for others to share became my source of joy and a unique kind of meditation," she shared.#2
