#Repost @getlostmagazine with @make_repost ・・・ Chanting, drumming and dancing are all part of Papua New Guinea's Sepik River Crocodile Festival, which takes place every August. 🇵🇬 ⠀ Tribes from right across PNG descend upon the Ambunti region to honour the revered crocodile, a symbol of strength, power and manhood. 🐊 ⠀ Carefully applied body paint, feathers and reeds adorn the performers, who are also known to swing live crocodiles through the air as well. 😮⠀ .⠀ Want to see this unique spectacle with your own eyes?

#Repost @terramatermag ・・・ Fliegen Fische(n): 🐟 Die Bewohner des Dorfs Lamalera auf der indonesischen Insel Lembata jagen normal Pottwale. Mit nichts anderem als kleinen Booten, Speeren und bloßen Händen, seit 600 Jahren bereits. Die fliegenden Fische, die von den Kindern hier stolz präsentiert werden, sind nach der Spieleinlage das Abendessen für den Tag. 📷: Claudio Sieber #terramaterfoto From my project ***Lamafa - Hunting the ancestor's gift*** Annually, sperm whales „Ikan Paus“ and other cetaceans migrate between the Indian Ocean and the Pacific. Throughout the main „Leva Season“ from May until late October, these giants pass the Savu Sea. They will feed on the big squids of Pulau Lembata’s southern shore where the harpooners are already awaiting them. This photo reportage reveals the mariners’ struggle to keep an age-old heritage alive, and thus their own survival.

#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

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
