Recommended: Importance of conservation of nature

Nature is all around us, and we take to many things for granted. These three nature photographers share this passion, and also let us see thing we can’t. These three people all take part in and freeze nature. Photographers range from coast to coast, letting everyday people like us see what they have seen.
There exists a picture taken by Fabiola Forns from Miami, Florida. In that photo there is a bird that stands out a great deal because of its color. The bird in the photo is up in a tree in an attempt to get away from other animals. The photographer probably had to climb this tree to get this photo. She had to stay very still to get this photo and also zoom in, yet still make sure the image is in focus.
Another photo Fabiola Forns took has an owl as its main focus. The background is blurry which pulls the image of the owl out more so that is all you see, and it is clearly defined. The owl’s eyes are a different color than background to put more emphasis on the eyes. She used rule of 3rds in this photo. The photo brings out the amazing colors in the owl, while still showing the natural beauty in the colors in the background.
The bluebird is another photograph done by Fabiola Forns. The bird is resting on a tree limb. The colors of the bird are blue, white, and cream. The bird seems to be looking off in the distance. The colors go really well together. This photographer probably had to get close to the bird and also move very slowly to ensure that she did not scare the bird away.
Tom Ambrose, the second photographer I looked into, calls one series of his landscape photos “Down the Cascade”. This picture has very many colors. I love how the waterfall looks so clear and smooth. This photographer used birds-eye view to captur...

...irds and birds from different areas in different phases of life. The photos are never planned out or positioned to capture a certain image, it is all natural. Tom Ambrose indulges in the beauty of natural landscapes. He tells a story through his photos of his journey around the world. He easily captures the simplicity and still the beauty of the earth where it is still untouched. He also uses his photos to show off how different our countries can be, while still being so essentially uniform. Brent Stirton is a human rights activist whose primary focus is on the wellbeing and health of Africa, where he comes from. He uses photography to show the injustice that surrounds our cultures and the turmoil that some of our countries are in. His work has the ability to capture the natural lifestyle of another culture but yet it sends a strong message about how unjust life is.

    The ideological imagination of Indians being in complete harmony with the nature led to Curtis encouraging subjects to pose in the landscape in order to perpetuate an inseparable bond between the natural world and their surroundings (Jackson, 1992). Photographs of Indians are taken, such as the tribe gaining livelihoods and creating handicrafts from the nature (Jackson, 1992, p. 95), and referring to the subject as part of the landscape itself. Captions accommodating photographs are used to enforce a particular understanding of the image as opposed to other meaning that may be assumed by others,

  • Inspired By Author, Harriet Beecher, Sarah Orne Jewett Wrote, A White Heron

    888 Words  | 2 Pages

    Topography is the features of land in an area. Those features can include rivers, mountains, lakes, hills, forrests, etc. A White Heron is overflowing with references to the topography of Maine, and more specifically the coast of Maine. The first sentence of Jewett’s A White Heron gives the reader a preview into the appreciation Jewett has for her home state of Maine, “The woods were already filled with shadows one June evening, just before eight o’clock, though a bright sunset still glimmered faintly among the trunks of the trees” (413). While this description isn’t specific to Maine on the surface, it is specific to Jewett’s interpretation of the woods at sunset in Maine, and the beauty of color writing is that each reader will imagine their own sunset based on their own woods in their own region. Jewett was just beginning and her description of the land around her, and as the story progresses the d...

Surrounding the houses is a field of green grass, but as you follow the path that the girl is on the lush carpet of healthy grass turns into a withered field.

  • The Relationship Between Nature And Society

    707 Words  | 2 Pages

    Throughout history, many individuals wish to discover and explain the relationship between nature and society, however, there are many complexities relating to this relationship. The struggle to understand how nature and society are viewed and connected derives from the idea that there are many definitions of what nature is. The Oxford dictionary of Human Geography (2003), explains how nature is difficult to define because it can be used in various contexts as well as throughout different time and spaces. As a result of this, the different understandings of what nature is contributes to how the nature society relationship is shaped by different processes. In order to better understand this relation there are many theorists and philosophers

  • The Power of Nature

    1274 Words  | 3 Pages

    The power of nature is all around us and can be found almost anywhere. One is able to study nature through experiencing it firsthand, looking at a picture, watching a movie, or even reading a familiar children’s story. I believe that by learning more about nature we can grow closer to God. Emerson states, “Nature is so pervaded in human life, that there is something of humanity in all, and in every particular” (Emerson 508). Like Emerson, I believe that humanity and nature were created by God and we can learn more about the Spirit of God by studying nature. I also see that nature has the power to influence our emotions and actions. I see evidence of this through various landscapes such as the desert, the beach, the mountains and the jungle. I thought about the vastness of the desert during a recent trip to the desert with my class. I think about nature and my love for it when I am scanning through my photo album and see pictures that capture me enjoying the mountains of Utah. When I watched the movie The Beach I was struck out how nature, specifically the beautiful beaches of Thailand, influenced the actions of every character in the movie. Of course it is hard to read a legendary story such as “Jungle Book” and not see what a powerful effect nature and its’ animals can have over humans.
