• One day in the life of the artist Hisham Akira Bharoocha (@softcircle) might include a mural-painting block party. Another might involve directing a performance of 88 cymbal players and a 20-piece band. “All the mediums I use inform each other,” says Hisham, who lives in Brooklyn, New York. “I want to be as prolific as possible during this short lifetime we are given.” Hisham is also a photographer, and with his wife Kate Thompson (@kateth325), he invented the hashtag #caughtgramming, for the compelling, sometimes funny frame-within-a-frame photo that so often presents itself when one is hanging out with other photographers. The name “Soft Circle” was also inspired by his many creative pursuits. “It came from the visualization of how it feels when you feel love and peace throughout your body, like you have an internal sun and there is a soft edge to it, emanating warmth.” Photo by @softcircle by instagram http://ift.tt/1UTiL3v

• Photo by @shonephoto (Robbie Shone) – Greenland is often associated with scenes of ice and snow, however in the far north eastern reaches of the country the landscape can be very dry apart from the milky blue rivers that drain the small local ice caps. This photograph was taken recently on the @negreenland_caves climate research expedition supported by the National Geographic Committee for Research and Exploration. by natgeo http://ift.tt/1gXWt1H

• Happy International Orangutan Day! The first orangutans we encountered on this visit were the female Beth with her five year old son Benny, here sharing a tender moment. This female has been part of my wife Cheryl Knott’s long-term research here at Gunung Palung since 1994. To see a photo of Beth with her first baby taken in 1995, go to @TimLaman. It is really amazing to have the opportunity to visit this site and document the lives or wild orangutans over more than 20 years.

• #Singapore, I’m bringing my National Geographic Live! talk “My Nine Lives” to the Esplanade Concert Hall on August 25th. I will be taking you “in the field”, sharing stories about working with the Big Cats of the world. Tickets are still available so come join me! Tickets at http://ift.tt/1NsG1Dn I’ve just finished shooting my worldwide #leopard story, for @natgeo showcasing the world’s most adaptable, but persecuted, big cat, as well as a Nat Geo Wild show. I covered leopards from the wilds of #SouthAfrica to the heart of #Mumbai and most recently Sir Lanka. The sun has set – the moon is up and I see a leopard – not much light – but with the 1DX I am able to get a unique shot with the moonlight in Sri Lanka Yala National Park. One of my goals with my photography is to help raise awareness about the plights facing these beautiful animals. National Geographic Big Cats Initiative goal is to also raise awareness and implement change to the dire situation facing them. So take the time and visit CauseAnUproar.org for ways to become involved in saving big cats!

• Jordi Sánchez (@ensanx), a jewelry designer from Cardedeu, in Spain’s Catalonia region, used to take pictures of his surroundings, but a comment on one of his images on Instagram made him discover a vibrant community gathering around architecture. That’s when his passion started. Jordi’s mission is to help people discover beautiful and surprising buildings by always looking around, always looking up. “I try to find beauty where at first you only see a corner, a sad wall or an unattractive building,” he says. He is also in the hunt for creative recourses to play with his images. “It’s not the same to be an Instagrammer specialized in architecture in a big city, full of huge buildings, as being one in a small city. You reach a point when you have photographed all the houses in your little town!” Jordi laughs. Photo by @ensanx by instagram http://ift.tt/1PBrGUx

• photo by @randyolson | words by @neilshea13 — It had been a good season, despite the drought, and everyone agreed that Arabo Chiere should throw a party. He was a rich man, owned vast herds, and was widely thought to be a sorcerer, able to transform himself into any animal he wished. It was also the case that Arabo’s daughter had turned 12, or nearly so, which meant she was becoming a woman. All these details produced a ripeness that Arabo could not ignore, though he had tried for a while, before the elders finally chided him into accepting his duty. Now it was on: he would host a huge celebration, one of the most expensive and exhausting events of his life. The celebration, called a Guol, would nominally honor his daughter. More practically, it would provide what anthropologists call redistribution, in which wealth is spread through a community, binding its members in a great burst of ritual sharing. The Guol would draw relatives and friends from across the desert. They’d camp in Arabo’s village for days or even weeks. In the mornings there would be songs and dances, and in the evenings more would follow. By custom, Arabo would make all the arrangements. He’d slaughter his cows and goats for feasting, empty his pockets buying coffee, sorghum and tobacco. What seemed worst to me was that no one could say exactly when the Guol would end. About a week into the festivities, Arabo told me he was leaving, heading into the mountains. I thought he’d finally snapped. More guests were arriving every day. Had enough? I asked. He laughed. It’s not that, he said, wearily. It’s just—he waved a hand at a crowd of young men leaping and dancing nearby—they eat so much! I have to fetch more goats. These Instagram pieces are part of our ongoing project, #NGwatershedstories, and they’re linked to our feature article on Kenya’s Lake Turkana in the August issue of @natgeo magazine. For the last six years, we’ve been documenting culture, change, and conflict in the ecosystem that connects southern Ethiopia and northern Kenya. Join us @randyolson and @neilshea13 as we follow water down the desert. #2014 #africa #kenya #laketurkana #jadesea #daasanach #celebration #tradition #joy #d by natgeo http://ift.tt/1EEWHAz

• Photo taken by @stevemccurryofficial // This engineer works in Landi Kotal, a small town on the western edge of the Khyber Pass, one of the most well-known mountain passes in the world. It connects Afghanistan and Pakistan, and was an important part of the Silk Road. It has always been used by travelers and traders going back and forth from South to Central Asia. Two millennia ago, Alexander the Great’s armies marched through the pass as they tried, unsuccessfully, to capture India. @turquoisemountain by natgeo http://ift.tt/1JtkgU8
