Colheita das uvas numa quinta do Douro, perto da Régua, numa tradição que combina esforço humano com a riqueza natural da região. As vinhas em socalcos, tão características, são testemunho vivo da interação harmoniosa entre o homem e a paisagem duriense.

This marina restoration is part of a much larger ecological project being done in an area of Upstate NY that hosts a huge variety of migrating birds. The entire project will help humans and nature by providing more food and habitat for our local and migrating wildlife, while also providing a better marina for the boaters. I am hopeful that this will be a positive change for our wildlife, but honestly, I always worry when mankind attempts to "improve" nature. Time will tell.
"Over 100 acres of coastal wetlands have been eroded from Braddock Bay since the loss of the spits of land that extended partially across the bay mouth in the early 1900s. In addition, extensive emergent wetlands have become dominated by the aggressive cattail species (Typha angustifolia and Typha x glauca). These alterations have substantially reduced the suitability of Braddock Bay habitat for many fish and wildlife
species such as the state endangered black tern (Chlidonias niger) and the northern pike (Esox lucius). The goal of this project is to protect and restore the suitability of Braddock Bay for these and many other fish and wildlife species."

Globalism is currently working in two distinct ways. One is an attempt to submerge the world into a singular "global" political-economy. Here the corporations that power the markets have the upper hand, and so it is possible to see international architecture that now looks the same everywhere; famous franchises all over the world where the food and coffee is the same; worldwide media that is essentially controlled by six major corporations. This is the standardised, one-size-fits-all model. And I loathe it.
But there is also a countercurrent at work - often referred to as multiculturalism (though I'd rather lose the "-ism"). This is where local cultures are cherished and encouraged. Real difference is acknowledged and relationships through mutual understanding are key to a peaceful community. There are photographers working in this field in Australia right now. Here is some of their work.
From top left we have Shirin Neshat (born Iran 1957) "I am its secret" 1993 from her series "Women of Allah".
In the middle is Zhang Huan (born China 1965) "1/2 Text" where the body is inscribed.
The wonderfully colourful portrait of young African men is by Leonce Agbodjelou (born Benin 1965).
Underneath those are the evocative portraits of Greek mourners by Georgia Metaxas (born Australia 1974).
On the right we have an interesting presentation with a trigger warning. You can read all about it by enlarging this collage. It tells us a great deal about a society that is more offended by the image of a dead worker, than the fact that a real person was murdered.

Earlier this month when Nikon released their D850 camera, 32 professional male photographers were surveyed on the camera’s latest features and how it would impact their work. There wasn’t a single female photographer on the list. After public criticism, Nikon released a statement revealing the details of the incident, mentioning they invited a few women photographers, but they were unable to attend, but the Internet isn’t quite ready to lay the issue to rest.
Thirty-two men and zero women is not a balanced input. When children are young, their minds are full of dreams. Every child grows up with dreams. Some dream of being artists, performers, a president, or other notable careers. Some also grow up with the dream of becoming a photographer. We have Nikon's list of 32 male photographers. In honor of Dream Day, here is Flickr's list 32 phenomenal female photographers that we'd would recommend for Nikon in the future.
