SUBMISSION: Mina The Gentle by Mike Talladen
ENDANGERED: Fine Art & Photography Contest 2018 Submission A famous orangutan in norther Sumatra Mina is known for being aggressive. Mina is nothing more than a gentle mother caring for her son and the victim of one too many close encounters with irresponsible guides and tourists attempting to get a closer look. She was rescued from illegal captivity and eventually re-released into the Gunung Leuser ecosystem and has since been attacked over 10 times by machete for being "aggressive." I feel her sons timidness and her watchful eye are a good representation of the fragility of Indonesia's rainforests. Losing their homes to oil palm and paper pulp plantations hunted for illegal pets and killed for no reason Sumatran orangutans are now critically endangered with their forests shrinking more every day.

ENDANGERED: Fine Art & Photography Contest 2018 Submission.
It has been said that the camera reflects both ways. As an artist, every vision I capture through my camera's lens is a reflection of my heart being touched by the soul of wild places. Like a meditation of light--color, texture, structure, pattern and composition--it awakens an inner peace and knowingness. With each image, it is my desire that viewers are inspired to love, cherish and protect the fragile beauty and wonder that is nature as they reconnect with that inner peace.

SUBMISSION: Connection by Laurie Schaerer
ENDANGERED: Fine Art & Photography Contest 2018 Submission.
Nature has so much beauty to offer, and many times, we are so busy that we don't have the time to enjoy the land and animals that surround us.
A small Eastern Bluebird guarding his nest several years ago caught my attention, and thus began my passion for photographing my surroundings.
It is my desire that my nature photography offers the viewer a quiet moment to reflect on and enjoy the many gifts nature has to offer.
