  • Photo by Robbie Shone @shonephoto | During the twilight hour in Innsbruck, Austria, capital of the Alps, festive shoppers enjoy Christmas markets beneath a building known as the Golden Roof (center-right), which was completed in 1500 for Emperor Maximillian I.
  • Photo by @lynseyaddario | Nicole Black holds her grandson Jacob Flowers. A week after Jacob’s birth by C-section, his mother, Crystle Galloway, developed complications. Black called 911, but her daughter was not transported to the hospital by ambulance. Black drove her there instead. Galloway died five days later. Black’s hand rests on the urn containing her daughter’s ashes. The responding medics were disciplined for not following standard operating procedures, and one was fired. During my career as a photojournalist I have documented maternal mortality across the developing world, but for my most recent @natgeo story, ‘Giving Life Can Still Be Deadly,’ I spent several months focusing on this issue at home in the U.S. and in Somaliland. The U.S. is one of only two developed countries where the rate of women dying from pregnancy has gotten worse since 1990. The rate of maternal deaths remains stubbornly high in the United States: about 14 deaths for every 100,000 live births. Black mothers are particularly at risk. Better basic care could help, as it has in the developing world.
  • Wildlife cameraman @bertiegregory trudging through a blizzard on the coast of the Hudson Bay in sub-Arctic Canada during the making of @natgeo ‘s Wild_Life Season 3. Making a wildlife film in pleasant weather has its challenges. How do you find a particular species? How do you predict where they’re going next? How do you capture a particular target behavior? These are all challenging questions to answer. But when you add howling winds, -30 C temperatures and sideways snow, even the simplest tasks become very difficult. Crucially though, it's necessary to film in these conditions to show what the animals here must deal with. After all, the animals don’t have a toasty warm cabin to go back to at night! A shot of a polar bear trekking through a blizzard is just so much more emotive than if it were walking along during a calm sunny day.

  • Photo by @thomaspeschak | In a remote part of the Bahamas, green sea turtles have learned to associate the sound of conch shells being cracked by fishermen with the chance of a free meal. The prized meat of the conch (a large shellfish) is exported to the United States and beyond, while the guts and discards are eagerly eaten by the attending turtles. The parents and grandparents of these fishermen regularly caught and ate sea turtles, but today’s generation has entered into a different relationship with these marine reptiles. Instead of ending up on the dinner table, these turtles now play an important part in a fledgling community tourism project. With local conch and other fish stocks in decline, tourism is becoming more and more important to the survival of outer island communities. Shot on assignment for @natgeo in partnership with @fonassociation for a forthcoming magazine story on sea turtle conservation. I will reveal more details about this location and project when the story is published in 2019. #seaturtles #turtles #oceans #underwater #islands #wildlifephotography #love #nature
  • Photo by @chien_chi_chang | I have been working in New York’s Chinatown since 1992—for more than 26 years—and it is still a project in progress. Immigration is often propelled by suffering. To witness the shifting patterns of populations is to see the world in all its exigencies—war, natural disasters, repression, famine, poverty, and persecution. But there is a rainbow at the bottom of that Pandora’s box of troubles; hope, too, propels immigrants to settle in strange lands. I should know: I am one myself. #MagnumPhotos #cccontheroad
  • Photo by Stephen Alvarez @salvarezphoto | Close to the Edge Cave, Canada. Last month's announcement of a new cave discovery in B.C. reminded me of my first Canadian caving expedition. Close to the Edge is a huge pit in the Canadian Rockies. Remote, cold, dangerous, it's entrance shaft is 255 meters deep. I was part of a 3 man crew that pushed the cave downward to -430 meters. I remember riding south after the trip, crunching survey data in the back of a greyhound bus and calling friends from a payphone to announce we had explored what was then the second deepest cave in Canada. #explore
  • Video by @Joelsartore | Reaching lengths of almost nine feet, the eastern indigo snake is the longest native snake in the United States. Once abundant in the wild, this snake saw dramatic population declines as a result of over-collection for the pet trade. With the exception of Florida and Georgia, the last sightings of the eastern indigo snake in its other home states, like Alabama, date to the 1950s. Thanks to the @indigo_center, this species is getting a second chance to thrive in the wild through reintroduction efforts. Several months ago the Omaha Zoo and its partner organizations released 20 eastern indigo snakes back into the Conecuh National Forest. The program aims to release a total of 300 snakes and will monitor the health of these populations as they continue to grow. Photo taken @theomahazoo.
  • Photo by @nicholesobecki | Owls are already some of most persecuted birds in Africa. Now their eggs are being stolen for witchcraft—but few seem to know or care. From ancient Greece’s Owl of Athena to Harry Potter’s devoted pet Hedwig, owls have long charmed, mystified, and intrigued humans. In the contemporary West, they are often seen as symbols of wisdom. But in Africa they’re generally viewed very differently, as harbingers of evil and misfortune, or as forms taken by nefarious sorcerers. These deeply held, widespread beliefs fuel an untold number of persecution killings. The birds are also highly sought after for use in witchcraft and traditional medicine, accounting for the deaths of possibly tens of thousands owls annually. #kenya #owl #nicholesobecki @audubonsociety
