Free Fall Flow by Bruce Omori

Rivers of molten lava create a spectacular scene, cascading over an 80 foot sea cliff, and forming a delta of new land and a black sand beach at its base.

Ice Tunnel by Marsel van Oosten

In South Africa, we’re currently in lockdown level 4, one down from level 5, the strictest one. We have a bit more freedom now, but we’re still very limited as to what we can do. As annoying as this may be, though, it’s not all bad. Or as the great Dutch football legend Johan Cruijff used to say: “Every disadvantage has its advantage”. The biggest advantage of this rather surreal situation is that I suddenly have time to work my way through old folders hiding deep in the abyss of my Lightroom image library. Many of those folders I have never even had the time to look through before, so it’s good fun to do that now. This image is from one of my visits to Iceland in 2015. It was just the two of us, and instead of going to one of the ice caves that all the tour groups go to, we decided to look for one that we had visited a few years earlier. We found it again and had the entire cave to ourselves. Obviously, the shape of the cave had completely changed over time, which made it even more interesting. I love these places as I love architecture, and Mother Nature surely is the finest architect of all. Marsel | squiver.com

Diademed Sifaka by Marsel van Oosten

The diademed sifaka is an endangered species of sifaka endemic to Madagascar. It is often described as one of the most colorful and attractive of all the lemurs, having a long and silky coat. Its habitats are the eastern Madagascar lowland forests and parts of the Madagascar sub-humid forests. Unfortunately, the diademed sifaka is classified as critically endangered on the IUCN Red List and is listed in CITES Appendix I. Population estimates for the species range between 6,000 and 10,000 individuals. The primary threat is – yep, you guessed that right – habitat reduction due to shifting cultivation by native peoples. This threat is also present even within designated national parks, which are sufficiently distant from the center of government, that enforcement of existing national laws protecting this species is problematic. Pressures of overpopulation in central and eastern Madagascar are causing many of the rural poor to seek subsistence by seizing whatever forest lands are available and undertaking slash-and-burn tactics as their initial step in a shifting cultivation system. I love photographing wildlife, but unfortunately so often the back story is quite depressing. Those eyes looking at me actually make me feel guilty of being a human. Like it’s saying: ‘Hey you, wtf are you doing? Stop messing with my home! Do I need to come down from this branch?!’ Marsel | squiver.com

|| TREMBLING || by Bruno Soares

Landscape PHOTOGRAPHY is about stoic, stable tripods.
But look at those trembling boats challenging that stability and making you wonder how they keep floating and smoothly waving with the water as you compose your frame! Sometimes I just forget to take the picture as I stay looking at the boats!
