A composição de cores é interessante e o fato de serem crianças em relação com a escola, mas de maneira lúdica chamou a atenção. O fato de os brinquedos se destacarem com relação à cor e também ao movimento das crianças em interação com eles torna a foto muito significativa e inspira reflexão.

A dent, in comparison to the workload that still awaits us on pollution, but glad that actions are still being in taken. For @nytimes in Abidjan where myself and journalist Anemona, followed women who make a living picking up plastic waste in the early mornings and late at night, and can now sell it to a project that is turning the trash into plastic bricks to build schools (the completed plastic school buildings are nothing short of remarkable)."

O fato de ser um mercado de ouro a céu aberto chamou muito a minha atenção. As vitrines coloridas são realmente impactantes. Não é algo comum, é único e característico deles. Para mim, é uma forma de mostrar a 'riqueza' deles sem medo de perder, pois muito já foi retirado e apago, mas agora eles se mostram a céu aberto.

Escolhi essa foto porque ela transmite muita força e identidade cultural. O que mais me chamou atenção foi a harmonia das cores e dos padrões, que se repetem no fundo e na roupa da mulher, criando uma composição visual marcante. Além disso, o olhar dela e a expressão serena passam uma sensação de orgulho e autenticidade, representando de forma bonita as tradições e a riqueza cultural de Madagascar.

A primeira vez que vi a imagem logo pensei em algo que representasse uma só unidade, e me fez imaginar como temos tentado monopolizar um universo tão variado e vasto. Porém, após realizar a leitura da legenda, pude notar que a imagem tinha um significado muito mais forte e a associei com a prisão que nós mesmos criamos em nossa mente, tentando diariamente criar ligações e laços para nos mantermos firmes nessa longa estrada que é a vida.

Escolhi essa foto porque o Ano Novo é a minha época favorita do ano. As luzes sempre deixam a noite mais bonita e me fazem sentir esperança de que coisas boas e mudanças vão acontecer. Nessa imagem, as crianças parecem felizes, talvez com a mesma sensação de alegria e renovação que eu também sinto quando o ano está começando.

# data[].attributes.body
Escolhi essa foto porque o olhar da criança me chamou a atenção, ela tem um olhar marcante e fixo na direção da foto , e as roupas das mulheres atrás dela ficou algo bem bonito ao meu ver, bem representativo com cores e formatos característicos da cultura Africana, parece que tudo se completa. Na descrição da foto diz que ela está rodeada de amor, e o povo africano passa essa vibe, de união e amor em obras que já assisti como: o Menino que descobriu o vento e Rainha de Katwe :) essa menina com um olhar que prende me fez lembrar desses filmes lindos que eu assisti.

A foto foi tirada num fim de tarde, o céu em degradê e as pessoas desfocadas dão uma sensação de movimento e leveza. Elas estão apenas brincando num gira-gira, aproveitando o clima de fim de dia enquanto o céu se escurece aos poucos. Vendo essa foto é quase possível ouvir as risadas das pessoas presentes ali, como se aquele momento fosse a única coisa que importasse. É leve, é tranquila e divertida. O tom escuro da imagem em contraste com o claro do céu sumindo é quase ameno, aquela sensação de um dia bom acabando.

É uma bela fotografia, num dia como qualquer outro, mas com diversos sentimentos.

"Não espere condições perfeitas para começar. Apenas faça, com o que você tem."

Exite um meme nas redes sociais, em que eles falam "tecnológia" (forma pronunciada). Em que eles mostram como adaptam objetivos simples, como o da foto, para uma função diferente do usual. Como usar uma sacola plástica cheia de furinhos para simular um chuveiro. E então eles tomam banho rápido, com essa tecnologia e ao mesmo tempo se divertem por ter pensado nesse uso diferenciado.

Apesar de poucos recursos não faltam criatividade, riso e muita arte.

Eu escolhi essa imagem pela intensidade e delicadeza das expressões das mulheres. O véu que cobre elas, quase como uma névoa da história, e a profundidade dos olhares são comoventes. Para mim, a pomba branca na cabeça é o toque final sugerindo que a liberdade é uma coroa, uma bênção, ou uma essência espiritual que repousa sobre a identidade.

During the late 18th century, over two hundred thousand Africans were sold into slavery to Iran. Years of battle and many lost lives later, Africans were granted Iranian citizenship. Niknahad’s project researches the African diaspora in Iran, a little-known slice of Iranian history.

“In my studies, I stumbled upon a story about the Black Wind, a wind that initially blew over the sea and killed many enslaved Africans but later opened the path to their liberation. During the recent years, I have become intimately acquainted with a number of African families so as to learn more about the history of discrimination, suppression and cruelty.”

Eu gostei muito da terceira foto desse carrossel, aonde se encontra um menino sentado no centro da foto com um livro na mão e em sua volta está uma bagunça, tudo aparentemente quebrado. A fotografia tem um ar de luz pois há muita presença de cores e jogo de luz destacando bem o menino.

°Me fez refletir sobre como costumamos julgar alguém dependendo de seu contexto social, modo de vida, família, descartando a possibilidade de mudança da pessoa de conseguir algo melhor e um futuro próspero. Faz se necessário a mudança desses pensamentos para que não venhamos deixar nossos alunos sujeitos aquela realidade sem esperança.

Decidi escolher essa imagem uma vez que, sob minha perspectiva, há a representação de amizade e empatia pelas meninas na foto. Todas elas se mostram unidas, e algo que chamou minha atenção foi as mãos das garotas que se interligam formando um coração, gerando um aspecto de laços, a qual também é descrita em sua legenda: "to the strong bonds" (Aos laços fortes).

Para as mulheres, gera empoderamento e geração de renda. Para as crianças, acesso à educação com salas de aula novinhas e sustentáveis. Reduz a poluição do meio ambiente, deixando um modelo a ser replicado em todo o mundo.

O contexto histórico e cultural da foto me chamou muita a atenção. No Madagascar, pessoas do meio rural e criadores de gado (mais especificamente os zebus, uma espécie asiática de bovino) sofrem com roubos e violência em seu cotidiano, os zebus são valorizados por sua carne, que é servida em ampla escala em restaurantes. Além do interesse comercial, há o interesse cultural e ritualístico, seus roubos são feitos pelos grupos de homens chamados "dahalo", o bovino é levado como uma oferenda para a noiva e também para provar a virilidade do homem a uma família.

Nas outras fotos - todas em preto e branco, trazendo um sentimento de seriedade e até luto para o cotidiano retratado- é possível ver um homem da autoridade, os dahalo laçando um zebu, homens posando presos e o que parece ser uma família, todos com expressões sérias e distantes da lente da câmera. Na foto dos dois homens presos pela mesma algema vemos algo simbólico, eles cobrem o rosto quase de modo cênico.

World Press Photo on Instagram: "Rural people in southern and western Madagascar face daily violence and theft of their coveted humped cattle, zebus, in a complex conflict between various human interests compounded by ecological and economic issues. In rural areas, in addition to their role in agriculture and transportation, zebus are a symbol of wealth and prestige and are the focus of many rituals. In urban areas, they are highly prized for their meat, which is served in upscale restaurants.

Groups of men called ‘dahalo’ (which roughly means ‘bandits’) have stolen zebu for decades, though only a few at a time as a dowry for a bride's family and to prove their virility. Since the 1970s, zebu theft has increased in scale and violence as the focus has shifted from ancestral traditions to the monetary value of the cattle. Organized armed dahalo groups now steal hundreds of cattle at a time. Communities report that entire villages have been burned, and that there have been kidnappings and murders in cattle raids. 

In 2012, Amnesty International reported that villages were being burned indiscriminately and accused Malagasy security forces of indiscriminate violence. Villagers often believe that government security forces merely respond to raids rather than providing early warning or protection.

O contraste entre o homem e o fogo, a espiral formada por ele e pelo o que parece ser um pingente dão a impressão do calor emergir de sua cabeça. Esse movimento me trouxe uma reflexão sobre a energia gerada por meio de nossas expressões, as reações e formas que são geradas por elas, suas belezas e ciclos.

Gostei da fotografia pois me fez lembrar do símbolo de força que as mulheres negras representam em muitos países do continente africano. Me fez lembrar da beleza que é a união de mulheres negras retintas, que são muitas vezes vítimas do sistema racial, que as menospreza. A importância de olhar a pele retinta como perolas que contam a sua história de onde vieram, de reinos africanos e não de escravas e serviçais.

Escolhi a imagem porque ela evidência perfeitamente a missão de combater a pandemia e proteger as comunidades. Essa ideia é reforçada pela legenda que ao dizer 'faça chuva ou faça sol, os agentes sanitários marchavam para mobilizar as comunidades', mostrando um forte senso de propósito coletivo.

O que me chamou atenção nessa foto são as cores e os elementos presentes. O céu alaranjado de fim de tarde, os balanços, as pessoas em movimento, me causam uma sensação de nostalgia, das brincadeiras no parque, a gritaria e risada da criançada, com aquela tristeza logo vem batendo no teu ombro, ja que logo logo, teríamos de voltar para nossas devidas casas. Me sinto nesta imagem.

Podemos ver nessa foto, casas bem humildes de madeira, um homem na frente de uma das casas, chão batido de terra e pedras. Ao fundos podemos ver montanhas e um pôr do sol maravilhoso com tons de laranja, desse pôr do sol vem uma luz refletindo diretamente ao homem.

Escolhi essa imagem, pois ela me remete a independente de todo problema que estiver acontecendo, sempre vai ter uma solução, mesmo quando você achar que está tudo perdido, em meio as dificuldades da vida, sempre vai existir uma "luz" .

Não sei se é a iluminação ou técnica de arte fotográfica, mas a impressão que ficou para mim é que o sol brilha com mais intensidade na África, é como se em meio a tanto sofrimento o sol grita para o povo africano.

Sejam iluminados , e tenham luz, mesmo em meio a tanto sofrimento.

Está fotografia retrata um local simples, periférico, sem asfalto, paredes rebocadas, ou linda arquitetura. Porém, passa um sentimento de identidade, representatividade e cultura local. O rapaz caminha encarando a câmera e sendo iluminado pelo raio de sol, como quem transmite vida e emoção ao passar por ali.

A foto é clara e um pouco sombreada, mistura cores quentes e frias.

No retrato contemplamos a natureza, a construção feita pelos homens e uma pessoa.

Escolhi esta foto pois, gostei da mistura de elementos e como eles se relacionam. O raio de sol me chamou muito a atenção, pois, particularmente amo sentir o calor do sol onde quer que eu pise e esteja.

Isso me faz lembrar que estou viva.

Ao ver essa imagem, senti como se voltasse para casa, para infância que ainda vive em mim. Me remete ao meu eu do passado, meu olhar de criança para o mundo ao meu redor.

Essa foto facilmente estaria em um álbum de fotos da minha família.

Escolhi essa foto porque me remete um pouco o Brasil, o cenário é familiar. Os meninos da foto me lembra os meninos do meu bairro que vão para a rua jogar bola. Gosto das cores e a forma como ela foi tirada, em um momento de comemoração, totalmente genuína. Essa foto traz nostalgia, me lembra a minha infância, quando eu brincava na rua com os meus vizinhos.

A disposição das cores chama atenção dos olhos por se tratarem de cores complementares (roxo e amarelo; azul e laranja). A luz a direita deixa tudo mais vivo.

Além do cenário contemplativo, a moça da foto se destaca por estar em 1° plano, mais próxima do visualizador e sua pose trás serenidade. Ademais, sua roupa tem buracos nas escápulas, o que trás a ideia de que ela possui asas.
