Paritcutin, Mexico Photo by @salvarezphoto (Stephen Alvarez) Legendary Mexican photographer Jesus Lopez (@lopezcorpion) makes his way along the rim of Paricutin Volcano. Jesus has been involved in almost every @natgeo Mexico story in the past 2 decades. Over the years he has been a trusted guide, fixer and true friend to many photographers including me. #Mexico #LumiaxNatGeo #AchieveMore #lumia640xl #Paricutin @lumiaxnatgeo by natgeo http://ift.tt/1TZ9C98

photo by @randyolson | words by @neilshea13 — This is the story she wanted to tell. Feather, paint, and one shining eye, smudges on her cheeks made with a fingertip. She came into the center of the village and presented herself to the camera. Many others had the ingredients but only she made this. She sat calmly for the portrait and spoke only her name, which is now lost. In the years since, we have wondered about the meaning of this photograph. There is a temptation to pile a lot in, for much has changed on the Omo and there are at least two girls here. One you see. To find the other you must unmake the image. Ask her to remove the feather. Then the paint. Then go back to before we arrived, before the boys tugged on third-hand Playboy t-shirts and the girls, when they heard us coming, slipped in lip plates and smeared clay onto their faces. Go back before breakfast and dawn and roosters. Keep going. Return upriver to camp. Return overland to the capital. Bury the roads on your way, dismantle the plantations. Fire all the policemen and gather up their guns. Shut down the Coca-Cola plant. Drive out missionaries. Unbuild the dam that turns water into a question, and level the government villages where no one wants to live. Keep going until things look right. Keep leaving. At the first hotel, many miles north, the clerk will greet you with a smile. “You are covered with dust,” he’ll say. “Sometimes that is life.” Yes, sometimes. And somewhere back behind you is the second girl, the one who appears on most days, when life holds few reasons for paint or feathers. She is tending goats, or looking at the moon. Possibly she is quite happy. Thank you all for joining us during our series from Ethiopia’s Omo River. This is the last dispatch from the Omo, but we’ll be back soon with stories from the next part of our project for @natgeo, along Kenya’s Lake Turkana. You can find all the pieces of this series archived at #NGwatershedstories, and please check in for more at @randyolson and @neilshea13. #2009 #africa #ethiopia #omoriver #mursi #rivers #girl #portrait #@geneticislands #documentary #everydayafrica #journalism #instaessay #natgeo @thephotosociety by natgeo http://ift.tt/1OF8PaE

Photograph by @paulnicklen taken while on assignment in South Georgia, Antarctica for @natgeo. I am often asked whether I get involved when I see a wild animal suffering or dying. As much as possible, I try and be a “fly on the wall” and not get involved in the natural process life and death in the wild. But, to be fully transparent, of course I rescue wild animals all of the time. I have put eagles back in a tree after a big blow, pulled drowning baby elephant seals out of the surf zone and in this case, pulled this dying baby King Penguin chick out of this hole in the ice. At this stage of life, “Oakum Boys” cannot allow their downy feathers to stay soaked as it will prove fatal. He shook off the water and waddled back to the colony. To see how Oakum Boys pack tight in a colony to stay warm, please follow me on @paulnicklen // As we move forward with @sea_legacy we will not be looking to rescue one animal at a time but to protect entire ecosystems through Marine Protected Areas. #MPA #nature #gratitude #wildlife #follow @thephotosociety @natgeocreative by natgeo http://ift.tt/1JlQ5N1

Photo by @ciriljazbec / Marvin is the CEO of a startup company caled SoftBallot. Their vision is to shape the next generation elections by ensuring secure electronic and online voting. Ngesa is a highly motivated electrical and electronic engineering student from Nairobi. His dream is to revolutionise Kenyan elections by allowing voting to be done on an online platform visible and usable by every Kenyan. SoftBallot was selected to be one of the finalists at Pivot East 2015, a premier startups competition in East Africa. Life in Africa is changing at a speed never seen before, yet this goes largely unnoticed because the world still looks at it through a traditional lens. To counter this, home-grown initiatives are popping up, sending a different picture of Africa to the world, and to Africans themselves – because their own perception of themselves is key for social development and innovation. @ciriljazbec @natgeo #Nairobi #Kenya #Africa by natgeo http://ift.tt/1CX9iUq

Photo by Pete McBride @pedromcbride // Morning mist over a lazy Colorado River oxbow. Today is #ColoradoRiverDay – On July 25th in 1921, Congress re-named the Grand River to the Colorado — that 1450-mile lifeline that supports 40 million people, most of America’s salad bowl, seven states, two countries, a $26 billion recreation economy and countless populations of wildlife. #chasingrivers #aerial #conservation I’m teaming with the @sonoraninstitute, @newbelgium, and Save the Colorado to celebrate Colorado River Day and the effort to #Restore the #ColoradoRiverDelta. Or share your favorite Colorado River images and include #CORiverDip #restorationcelebration #deltaDip to spread the love. by natgeo http://ift.tt/1Jm4zg0
