• On assignment for @Natgeo in Athens, Greece, photo by @davidcoventry In the classical period of Greek mythology, Artemis was the Hellenic goddess of the hunt, wild animals, wilderness, childbirth, virginity and protector of young girls, bringing and relieving disease in women; she often was depicted as a huntress carrying a bow and arrows. She was the daughter of Zeus and Leto, twin sister of Apollo. On assignment for @Natgeo in Athens, Greece. @namuseum.gr, #ancientgreece, #greekmythology, #greece by natgeo http://ift.tt/1HS6Ihf

• Photo by @chien_chi_chang / @magnumphotos It was late on a September afternoon in 2010 in the Burmese capital of Yangon. The air was hot and humid. One heavy gray cloud obscured the sun, and others sailed behind. Above each monolithic cloud, it seemed, there was a gigantic bucket of water at tipping point. In an instant, the bucket overflowed over downtown Yangon. The pedestrians and street vendors all reacted reflexively—finding refuge under colorful umbrellas, sheltering their wares, walking carefully around potholes of water in their sandals. While the rain continued to pour, the sun seeped through the clouds. A distant Buddhist chant provided a baseline to the cacophony of merchants, walkers, shoppers and commuters. Then it was all over, business as usual, just another day during the rainy season. #yangon #burma #rangoon #business #buddhist #myanmar #rain #market by natgeo http://ift.tt/1JnyJPV

• Photo by @edkashi/@viiphoto: Workers rake through dirt at a brick #kilnfactory in Barasat, #India, just outside of Kolkata on Jan. 26, 2015. Brick manufacturing has been a fast-growing industrial sector. The smoke from the brick kilns emit large amounts of #pollution containing sulfur dioxide, carbon monoxide, and carbon dioxide. The toxic fumes that are emitted on a daily basis have caused serious health hazards for the workers as they can be harmful to the eyes, lungs, and throat and can also stunt the mental and physical growth of children. by natgeo http://ift.tt/1JnPevq

• The New Horizons spacecraft shot this photograph of Pluto as it was flying away from the planet on July 15. Backlit by the sun, Pluto’s atmosphere rings its silhouette, creating a halo. Scientists had previously calculated that temperatures would be too warm for hazes to form at altitudes higher than 20 miles (30 kilometers) above Pluto’s surface. With New Horizons detecting hazes at up to 80 miles (130 kilometers), “we’re going to need some new ideas to figure out what’s going on,” said Michael Summers, a New Horizons co-investigator from George Mason University in Fairfax, Va.

• For Malin Hjorth (@mahjorth), drawing is a way to represent the amusing situations of life. A project manager at a kitchen company in Oslo, Norway, by day, Malin’s playful images are of collages of hand-drawn figures mixed with real-life objects or photos from interior and fashion magazines in delightful compositions. “I start out with no idea, then I start drawing. I cut out the figure or object and place it on the wall or at a photo. When composing my photo I think of the light, and of the shadow my objects are creating,” Malin says. “For one year I was an exchange student at the Academy of Fine Art in Oslo, and one teacher said to me, ‘Malin, stop talking! Start drawing!’ And I did! With my work I want people to see the humor in life.” Photo by @mahjorth by instagram http://ift.tt/1I0p8Ks

• 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
