It is simply amazing. As if from some fantasy book, where the main character is chosen to save the world and in his power all the tits of the world! These are tits, if I'm not mistaken?)

Culture: 'Synergy Of Humanity' By Eng Chung Tong, Malaysia
Monika Soffronow 6 years ago
Is this a photo? And if it is, then what on earth is it a photo of? Forced labour? I googled and found this description "“Synergy of Humanity” A tribe in Yunnan going about their daily working life. “Team work, coordination and cooperation are essential for efficiency; otherwise it will be chaos.” Photo: Eng Chung Tong, Malaysia, Shortlist, Open, Culture (Open competition), 2019 Sony World Photography Awards" here: https://sea-globe.com/sony-world-photography-awards-2019/ So, it is apparently from Yunnan, China. Is it an open pit coal mine? Horrible working conditions, if that is the case.
Monika Soffronow 6 years ago
Here is something on ethnic minorities in Yunnan. http://www.yunnanadventure.com/Minorities (I hope they are carrying tea leaves and not coal, the baskets still look terribly heavy)

Culture: 'Vasile Oanea' By Alex Robciuc, Romania
Alex Robciuc 6 years ago (edited)
His whole life lived here.In a traditional wooden house from Maramures county, Romania, in the picturesque village of Breb. He is strongly rooted in the ancestral Maramures, but he has not given up on the benefits of the 21st century technology, combining in an original way the traditional Maramures lifestyle with accents of a poet, writer or a modern journalist, surrounded by laptops, printers, video cameras or digital cameras. Vasile is a creative person, he writes his thoughts in verses. He is also a journalist of the village when he is recording various moments happened there as pictures and videos.The photo depicts Vasile, after he told me his emotional life story.
KarmaQueen 6 years ago
He looks sad and bet has a great story to tell. take the time to sit down and listen.

It should say "Death on the Sea" since those are fishing nets that kill thousands of species..not just the species these fisherman are looking for. The list includes whales, turtles, sharks and porpoises. Fishing nets need to be outlawed.
