This is a dammed lake formed by the temporary accumulation of melted snow. Normally, the area is overgrown with trees, but for a limited time, a phantom forest appears on the surface of the water. It is a paradise as well as a phantom water forest, where birds and people can be seen nesting. I have started photography since 2013. Because I wanted to preserve the beautiful night view of Nagasaki, which I visited on a trip, in photographic form. In the beginning, I mainly photographed night views of cities, but later I became fascinated with nature photography. I am currently on a quest to capture the scenery of Chiba, where I was born and raised, and other places in Japan. I confronts photography from both analog and digital perspectives.

This photo represents what nature is capable of doing.

What does our inner child tell us, and if we let him speak, may he reveal to us the stories that make us but that we forget. He knows. Break down the wall of silence, of terror, and find him, and save him. And if the photo could show what escapes us, be the medium of our souls, play with the invisible. Her eyes wide open towards life, Delphine Margau walks between her shadows and finds the light each time. From vibrant scenes out of time to paintings with a romantic aesthetic… the work of the cosmopolitan French photographer is tinged with black and white, invisibles and visions. His pictures summon the strange and the serious. They pose a poetic act. Fragile and powerful, Delphine Margau is an artist pierced by the stories that precede her. Her art has taken root in the urge to express and, from her infinite inner spaces, she finds the crack to connect with her own light.

On some days everything seems to be arranged for the photographer, the warm light, a soft haze, fine colours and overwhelming atmosphere, the composition of subjects and last but not least a large egret, strolling curiously but calmly between the shore and the sailboat and thus underlines the tranquillity of the first morning light. The photo has been captured in Germany at Lake Constance in autumn 2022.

My photographic project The birth of light is the report in images of the "Living Nativity Scene" a traditional event of the popular culture of the country where I live, in Calabria, in southern Italy. It is a choreographic and scenographic representation that tells the story of the birth of Christ. I took care of the direction and direction of photography of this event mainly asking myself one thing. Where does light come from? What are its breaths and how does it react when it encounters people or things or environments. This project is inspired by the light of the Italian Baroque painters.

My relatives, Betty and Norm, have been married for 74 years and had just discovered their old wedding photo. They still live together in their own home and Norm drives to the post office and shops. Norm was in the Air Force in World War 2 and afterwards he flew small planes and sailed boats, which he built.

I feel an awe in the face of open landscapes and humanity seems small and insignificant. There have been thirty-seven epochs in Earth's history. We have been part of two. I mounted scenes of human habitation behind acrylic and affixed them within sweeping desert landscapes. The images push out onto hand-painted frames, alluding to the next chapter in the planet's history. In spite of human activity, the Earth continues to transform. Its inhabitants cannot escape its permanence, and the power it has to shape their existence. As nature reinvents itself, can we adapt with it? Diana Cheren Nygren is a fine art photographer from Boston, Massachusetts. Her work explores the visual character of place defined through physical environment and weather. Place has implications for our experience of the world, and reveals hints about the culture around it. Diana was trained as an art historian with a focus on modern and contemporary art, and the relationship of artistic production to its socio-political context. Her emphasis on careful composition in her photographic work, as well as her subject matter, reflects this training.

I have been interested in the photographic interaction of nature and technology for several years. With my pictures I want to take the viewer into a unique and unconventional macro world beyond everyday experience. With each image, the viewer enters a visionary space in which a short story is told about a living being from our technologised environment and in which the two worlds ultimately merge into a unique unity. This results in pictures that have a new aesthetic and mode of expression and allow the viewer to participate in a new kind of emotional experience. I’ am a Paderborn based amateur photographer from Germany. I have been working intensively with photography for about 15 years. In the course of time, I discovered my passion for the small and inconspicuous things in our world and specialized in artistic close-up and macro photography.

This photograph tries to reflect "persistence", that inner strength and energy that helps us to overcome the difficulties that appear on the way, and in this way, to reach our goals.

The Human-Elephant Conflict (HEC) in Sri Lanka is an issue that affects both the living conditions of local communities and the lives of these animals, which are increasingly being killed by humans through gunshot wounds, electrocution, traps, and explosive devices. According to recent studies, between 2020 and 2022, 1136 elephants lost their lives as a result of this conflict, out of a total population of just over 7000, making the country have the highest mortality rate in the world. The human toll is equally dire: 399 human deaths, in addition to thousands injured and permanently disabled. Federico Borella is a freelance photojournalist.

There is a concept in eastern thought that God created individual souls in order to experience consciousness of creation. It is said: “Whatever its particular journey, each individual bubble or soul must in the end merge back into the vast ocean of Spirit from which it came.” These works reflect my meditations on souls swimming in the ocean of consciousness. I hope my work brings a momentary pause, a place of reflection on the nature of spirit. Vicky Stromee was immersed in the transformative power of the arts from an early age. Her obsession with texture, pattern, fluidity, and change became defining life themes that continue to unfold in her work. Painterly influences inform Vicky's unique eye for composition and form, light and color. Her work invites the viewer to pause, reflect, and find a visual respite.

There was a full of the spring atmosphere. I just wanted to capture a moment this beautiful color and presence. Flower is the one of my essential.
