Paris hosts exhibition of Azerbaijan-born photographer

The exposition features 22 photos Deghati took in the last 30 years. The visitors at the exhibition included Azerbaijan's Ambassador Elchin Amirbayov, members of the French public and Azerbaijan's community and embassy staffers. World famous for his intrepid explorer's style of capturing the world's most exotic places, Reza has covered most of the globe for National Geographic Magazine.

Numerous films about Reza's work have been produced by National Geographic Television, most notably Frontline Diaries [2] , which won an Emmy Award in 2002.

Reza later served as Creative Director for National Geographic`s most viewed documentary, Inside Mecca, in 2005. As part of its Exceptional Journeys series, National Geographic released a DVD in May 2008 looking at Reza's career as a photojournalist, with special features highlighting his extensive humanitarian work.
