Photography is far from having just one mechanical impression of light. Photographs can tell. And often, without our realization, these stories tell something about us, the people behind the camera. This is the option of the subject, the lens we use, tonal palette, or finally the final selection of images; Every decision bears our fingerprint. As photographers, we often become part of stories we are telling. We step into them and connect each image together in a mosaic that shows our own way of looking at the world.
Some time ago, I had the idea of opening a place here on photography life for photo stories sent by your, our readers. And looking at the pictures you sent, I can’t be happy about that decision. Last month, my honest thanks to all the people who responded to my call in photography news and shared my work- I really appreciate it. Of the stories you have been assigned to you, I have chosen all three who echo the most. And now, it is time for you to enjoy them.
Along with images, all the lessons below were sent by our readers to send them with their photo stories.
Complex flight
By Jerzi Graff
Compong Flore is very different from today in 2014, when online travel sites introduce a tourist-powered environment, often a colorful fishing community’s picturesque backgrounds and people with selfies against homes on the stilts, often with crowded boats with crowded boats. When my wife and I visited as an assistant to the discovery of Angkor complex, at the end of 2014, barely any tourist could be seen, of course there was no person among the village. However, with a camera in hand, I found a local suspect from a local. I remember that place left me with a spirit of rural peace and calm, with people what was an unchanged method of life. I have selected some images from those that I captured then that I hope that the environment of the rural authenticity of the local fishing community of the Kampong flight was expressed as it was a decade ago.
Yellow-Footed Rock Walbi: Endanic resident of South Australia
By Rafael Esenhofra
Along with many of Australia’s original mammals, the yellow-legged rock walli (YFRW) is listed as weak. YFRW was considered a common feature of the Australian dry landscape a century ago. However, a mixture of historical hunting for its beautiful fur, the overgrazing of its habitat by the wild introduced vegetarian (such as goats), pressure from aggressive predators (foxes), and the use of human land has dropped the YFRW population. Thankfully, the bounce back program led by National Parks and Wildlife Service SA and other partners has seen a stable recovery of YFRW and its residence. Established in 1992, the program saw a number (~ 2,000) and 10 -fold increase in areas occupied by YFRWS in South Australia.
As part of a student’s research project, including implicating animals to measure health and update population estimates, I enjoyed joining a campaign in remote South Australia. The site was at Bimbowrie Conservation Park, driven about 5 of hours northwest from South Australian capital Adelaide. The region has a rich history of traditional language and tribal Australian occupation with land (Adanimathanha, Nagadjuri and people) with stories in the region. In more recent history, the region was used for wool production (a large industry in Australia in the late 19th and 20th centuries), although it was possible how this landscape was given, and low annual rainfall (100–300 mm) is surprising. Fieldwork in Australia has really appreciated me for a dry environment. Although it is harsh (and many do not make it), I have found beauty in its relative minimalism, and the spirit of space and openness is breathtaking.
the hills Have Eyes. With that, life finds a way, and it also includes YFRW, which is highly adapted to this environment. They use their long, padded legs and giant tails as an imbalance as they maneuver the vertical landscape. These beautiful animals are elusive, and areware of humans, making them difficult to take photos. As their name suggests (rock walbai) they prefer to live in rocks – so many climb up and down! Entering their residence, you feel that you are being seen …
What is the future for this charismatic species? As the climate gets heated, these already rigid environments become more extreme, limit the housing available to YFRW. However, I am carefully optimistic. The success of the bounceback program suggests that it is possible for us to come together to improve the results of the original species of Australia.
Britain air show fight
By Tulsi Grabber
It is one of the main attractions of the Battle of Britain Air Show in Daxford, UK: more than a dozen vintage spitfires and storms move to the sky, creating a large formation that surrounds the airspace several times. Mass take-offs before flypast, and later on landing-paved runways and adjacent grass are impressive in parallel and quick succession-as a recent flypt. My photo series catchs the take-off, the large “Daxford Air Wing” flying past, and several spitfire after landing.
conclusion
Thanks again to those of you who sent your photo to stories! I enjoyed reading all of them and today was a very difficult time to present three here. Be sure that if you want, there will be more opportunities to share our work with us in future! I hope these photo stories add something to your day. Thanks for the view.
