Magnum Photos

Hold on tight 🎈⁠ ⁠ Balloons are a universal language of delight—colorful departures from everyday life. Magnum photographers have captured the ways we celebrate with them, fly in them and carry them with us. ⁠ ⁠ In 1992, @peter_marlow_foundation photographed Robert Etherington, an English balloonist, bringing a hot air balloon to life in Tuscany, Italy.⁠ ⁠ A lone balloon may have brought momentary relief in @mattblack_blackmatt’s image from Brownsville, Texas.⁠ ⁠ Cristina García Rodero depicts a dreamlike zangarrón, a folkloric character during a festival in Sanzoles del Vino, Spain. ⁠ ⁠ Comment your favorite 👇⁠ ⁠ PHOTOS (left to right):⁠ ⁠ (1) Bahia, Salvador.

If only the dear little children of Gaza had some delight in their lives. It is incomprehensible what they are being subjected to by Israel.

Day one in Svalbard with @naturalworldsafaris. We’ve made it to the north of the archipelago after an incredible glacier shoot on board @rvkinfish. As always I brought the chicken head camera with me, it never ceases to amaze me how stable it can be shooting from the zodiac. This trip is just getting started, excited to share more as we head into the pack ice ❄️

Simple steps to use color to elevate your photography brand! With @platoux / Colors and brands share a close connection, as colors can instantly convey meaning and messages, eliminating the need for words. Furthermore, color alone can influence people’s attraction to a message about 60% of the time, increasing brand recognition by up to 80%. If you are starting as an outdoor photographer, to use color effectively and build a strong brand on social media, consider the following steps: 1) Get familiar with color theory and think about colors that complement each other or are analogous on the color wheel. Complementary colors create high contrast and catch the eye, while analogous colors provide balance and harmony - pictures 7 and 8 are good examples. 2) Identify the dominant colors in your favorite landscapes and see which color combinations work best. 3) Choose color schemes for the landscapes you photograph the most. For example, have a specific color scheme for deserts, mountains, forests, and coastal areas. 4) Consider how light, weather, and the seasons can affect the colors in your go-to landscapes, and plan your trips accordingly. 5) Edit your images following color theory, adjusting the tones and hues to your selected color scheme. 6) Once you have completed your edits, select your favorite images and organize them on Preview, Canva, or any other tool to see how they can fit together on your feed. 7) Create a color-based feed for your social media, following color theory and considering the color combinations in your landscape images. 8) Lastly, establish a schedule or visual roadmap to guide your color choices and maintain consistency. These are some basic guidelines you can use to start with! By applying these steps, you can effectively use color to enhance your brand and create a visually compelling presence across your social media channels. If you think about some of your favorite photographers, could you quickly describe their go-to colors? 🎨

There’s a type of indescribable magic that floats in the air. Excited anticipation for the next perfect moment. My camera stays in my hand almost every second of the day while I’m here and that’s exactly how I want it to be. Shot on the Sony A1 with a variety of different lenses in Raja Ampat, Indonesia. Edited with my Sparling Pro collection Lightroom Presets.
