#Repost @getlostmagazine with @make_repost ・・・ They're a symbol of strength, power and manhood, and every August the various tribes from across Papua New Guinea come together to celebrate the revered crocodile. 🐊 The Sepik River Crocodile Festival gives outsiders the chance to interact with PNG locals as they chant, dance and display their cultural heritage. 🇵🇬 Adorned in body paint, feathers and reeds, tribe members pay homage to the crocodile by featuring live crocs in their performances - it's a wild and unforgettable festival to witness, that's for sure! 😮 📸: @claudiosieberphotography #foodforthought #earthfocus #globalization #transition
#Repost @hakaimag One Great Shot: DIY Gold Mining A resourceful Filipino diver hunts for gold on the ocean floor. Authored by by Claudio Sieber Along the shores of Pinut-an in the Philippines, locals mine underwater gold deposits with makeshift gear. I followed this veteran miner with nine years of gold-diving experience 15 meters down to watch how he uses coconut shells to scoop silica-quartz sand into plastic bags. To breathe underwater, he inhales air from the end of a hose, lets it circulate, and then releases it out the other side of his mouth. Skillful submarine miners like this man, who uses homemade flippers on his feet, have even learned to lunch underwater. The menu includes sea urchins, fresh clams, or any other sort of kinilaw, which translates to “eaten raw.” Since visibility can be very bad, miners locate silica-quartz by rolling pebbles between their fingers and listening for a distinctive sound. After bagging the sand, this miner loads it into a bowl, and then fills the attached drums with air until they’re buoyant enough to make the rig easier to tow to shore. #onegreatshot #diving #underwatermining #gold #Philippines #foodforthought #earthfocus #globalization #transition
What looks like a staged scene from Ghost in the Shell or Total Recall is actually just a glimpse into Hong Kong's Downtown - The city's neon signs are famous around the world. But many are disappearing, replaced by LED signs instead. www.claudiosieberphotography.com *********************************************** #picoftheday #photography #earthfocus #hongkong #roamtheplanet #citylights #chaos #transition #rainyday #asia #cityscape #neonlights #city #explorenation #nightphotography #nightshot #traditional #nomad #metropolis #aroundtheworldpics #ig_worldphoto #thephotosociety #urbanjungle #explorer #worldwide
Seber is hauling a load of gold bearing sand by the support of oxygen-infused drums In the wild setting of Southern Leyte where Scuba addicts are chasing whale sharks and other oceanic creatures, some natives still mine sub-aquatic gold for their day-to-day survival. It’s been centuries since the tiny village of Pinut-an has gotten on the explorers’ map as a hotspot for gold mining. This photo of Seber is part of my upcoming story from distant lands. Watch out for more... www.claudiosieberphotography.com *********************************************** #picoftheday #traditional #philippines #foodforthought #earthfocus #remotextpeditions #ocean #money #roamtheplanet #underwater #earthofficial #change #globalization #transition #mining #offthegrid #community #livelihood #people #explorenation #photojournalism #reportage #traditional #gold #island #aroundtheworldpics #ig_worldphoto #thephotosociety #remote #explorer cc @terrax @natgeo @natgeochannel @stern @remotextpeditions @smithsonianmagazine
The active stratovolcano Tavurvur near Rabaul, on the island of New Britain (Papua New Guinea). In 1994 the eruption of the volcano largely destroyed the nearby town of Rabaul. The land of the Tolai ethnicity is not only famous for its splendid landscape, it is also the place where shell money is still vital. Whilst paying with plastic or virtual clicks is in vogue, there are still corners of this planet where shells are used daily as an alternative currency. Decades after the introduction of PNG's new cash system, as well as ATMs and loan firms, the Tolai of East New Britain are still genuinely affiliated with their marine treasures whilst they're moving slowly from a self-sufficient lifestyle into the money-driven economy. Hence, they must learn about entrepreneurship and how to juggle with both - the Kina notes & Toea coins, as well as their official complementary currency – ‚Tabu’. What does the future hold for Tabu shell money? My latest documentary "Tabu is Life" - The shell money of East New Britain explains it all, in a visually appealing and informative way! Keep your eyes peeled for the upcoming media spreads. www.claudiosieberphotography.com *********************************************** #picoftheday #traditional #papua #foodforthought #earthfocus #remotextpeditions #ocean #money #roamtheplanet #culture #earthofficial #change #globalization #transition #anthropology #offthegrid #landscape #volcano #people #explorenation #photojournalism #reportage #traditional #nature #island #aroundtheworldpics #ig_worldphoto #thephotosociety #remote #explorer cc @terrax @natgeo @natgeochannel @stern @remotextpeditions @smithsonianmagazine
