• For Hitoshi Kobayashi (@twinleaves) from Tokyo, Japan, the sceneries that excite his photographic endeavors are not the urban landscape or the modern architecture found inside the city center, but rather the decades-old stores and houses which he discovers in suburban neighborhoods. “I’ve just been capturing whatever that catches my attention in the streets, but come to think of it, I think I’m naturally drawn to things that tell stories about people’s lives,” he says. “Timeworn buildings, overused dustpans and even small inventions like attaching a broken door with a string — these are the kinds of things that I find fascinating,” explains Hitoshi. Over time, his photography has evolved from snapping nostalgic moments to capturing straight facades of aged buildings. “The appearance of the facade changes even with the slightest trim,” he reveals. “It takes forever for me to walk through an old town — because when I’m walking, my eyes and head are so busy trying to trim the reality in front of me.” Photo by @twinleaves by instagram http://ift.tt/1RDALkv

• Photo by @tyronefoto (Tyrone Turner). I saw Marlon as he was walking along Gentilly Boulevard towards his home in New Orleans East. He welcomed my question about the crown and said that this is what he was wearing to work as a food runner in one of the downtown hotels. Originally from the Lower Ninth Ward, after the storm he bounced from Las Vegas to Memphis to Baton Rouge to Houston before coming home 2 years ago. “I’ve seen some nice places but there’s no place like home.” @natgeocreative @thephotosociety #myneworleansstory #passiton #nola #katrinatenyears #louisiana by natgeo http://ift.tt/1J4TIa4

• photo by @randyolson | words by @neilshea13 — One day he went into the forest alone. He had in mind what he wanted. Not every boy knows with such clarity who he prefers for a companion but he had decided on a baboon. The boy somehow captured the animal. The details are vague. This is what he said. To tell you the truth, I don’t believe it. Though he had a certain kind of courage no boy this small has any business chasing dangerous animals around so far outside the Suri village. Especially not in the nurseries of big mother baboons, which are all teeth and banshee shrieking. In any case the beginning is irrelevant. There is always a boy like this, and a baboon without a name. For a while they would be great friends. Everyday they wandered and played together. House to house, aunt to aunt, asking food, wasting time. They are coming to be almost the same age, human and baboon lives passing like satellites, their orbits nearing, nearing. In the afternoons they walked in long cool shadows, just the pair of them. In the evenings the baboon slept curled beside him. It was saddest because you knew it couldn’t last. After this brief perigee the baboon would grow bigger, stronger, surpassing the boy’s young courage, willful and unpredictable as everything that lives. Then the decision so far suspended would come down, and it would not be the boy’s to make. But let’s don’t talk about that. The daydream can play out a little longer. See how the boy has painted its face. See how it holds him, how it desires to be held. This is a dream you will recognize, one we’ve shared. To be understood for a moment beyond words. For the last six years, Randy Olson and I have been documenting culture, change, and conflict in the watershed that connects southern Ethiopia and northern Kenya. In the August issue of @natgeo magazine we’ll publish the latest in our series, #NGwatershedstories. Join us at @randyolson and @neilshea13 as we follow water through the desert. #2009 #africa #ethiopia #omoriver #suri #baboon #tradition #rivers #conservation @geneticislands #documentary #instajournalism #instaessay #takenotes #natgeo @thephotosociety #portrait by natgeo http://ift.tt/1OcpjGl

• As a child #WendyChristensen came to the local zoo and she would watch #Samson, he was alive, and a huge celebrity in the city. Once Wendy became the #taxidermist at the #MilwaukeePublicMuseum she faced a challenge. Samson had passed away. Due to poor preservation of the original and in an effort to evoke the spirit of Samson some decisions had to be made. Christensen decided to produced a re-creation that used no part of the actual gorilla. @thephotosociety @natgeo @robertclarkphoto @instituteartist by natgeo http://ift.tt/1HE0P4X

• Photo @ladzinski / With summer time comes an urge to want to be outside, experiencing the good weather, smelling the fresh cut grass and if you have one – letting the dog off the leash at the park.

• Photo by @amivitale. Since moving to Montana, I have had the opportunity to spend time at the J-L Ranch (@jbarlmontana) in the Centennial Valley. The folks here have a strong bond with the land and a deep connection to what lives and dies here. What has fascinated me most are the children. I cannot escape the feeling that they are shaped as much by their parents as by the land itself and they in turn help shape the land. @natgeocreative @thephotosociety @nikonusa #jbarlmontana #centennialvalley #conservation #nature #seetheworld #bestdestinations #inspiring #nikonnofilter #nofilter #nikon #d4s #nikonambassador #amivitale #photojournalism #onassignment #natureisspeaking #americanwest #montanamoment #montanalife #montanagram #montanalove #montanasummer #montanamoments #west #summer by natgeo http://ift.tt/1Mb1e4h

• Over the past several days, President Barack Obama has made criminal justice reform his focus—from the 46 commutations he issued on July 13 to the sweeping reform platform he laid out the following day—and it all came to a head on July 16 when he became the first sitting U.S. president to visit a federal correctional facility – the El Reno Federal Correctional Institution in El Reno, Okla. In this photograph, by Kevin Lamarque of @reuters, President Obama is seen through a prison cell window as he tours the institution. Read more on time.com. by time http://ift.tt/1f8iZnA

• After lowering gear all morning from the extreme heat of the Yucatan Peninsula, into the depths of this cenote, my partner @cristinamittermeier takes a dip into the cool waters in this beautiful cavernous swimming hole. I had already framed up the Mayan skulls for a shot with the shafts of light and loved how this serendipitous and tender moment appeared connecting the surface world with the dark secrets of an eerie past. There are no above ground rivers in the Yucatan and all the water runs through and underground maze of subterranean rivers. Occasionally, the ground breaks to reveal one of these waterways to form beautiful cenotes. Dozens of tourists swim here every day completely unaware of the large ancient Mayan burial site just below the surface. Ancient Maya believed that the rain god Chaak resided in caves and natural wells called cenotes and that is where they buried the human sacrifices they made to call for rain. As I approach 1 million followers on @paulnicklen I can’t express my gratitude enough for the chance to work for the best journalistic publication in the world. Thank you @natgeo for all of life changing opportunities to explore, photograph and share stories from the most remote corners of the planet. I am also grateful for the incredible people I get to work with and most of all, I am grateful to all of the wildlife that has allowed me to tell their story. Please #follow me as we pursue the next chapter of this journey and share those images and stories on #instagram #gratitude #nature #wildlife #keepitwild #@natgeo @thephotosociety @natgeocreative #love #beauty #love #culture #diving #rebreather #light by natgeo http://ift.tt/1JkPQgY
