  • The image depicts an industrial facility, likely a refinery or manufacturing plant, illuminated by numerous lights during dusk. The skyline features tall structures, including towers and stacks, with a complex arrangement of pipes and machinery. The surrounding area appears barren, with some electrical towers and vegetation visible in the foreground. The overall atmosphere suggests a busy industrial site functioning into the evening.

  • The image depicts a man standing on cracked, dry land beside a wooden boat. The landscape appears parched, indicating a lack of water, possibly due to drought. The man is holding a bundle of vegetation or grass. In the background, other boats are visible, also resting on the dry ground. The scene conveys a sense of environmental distress and the challenges faced by individuals in regions affected by water scarcity. The sky is clear, and the sunlight emphasizes the harsh conditions of the landscape. Iraq. “Without Water, We Have No Life” Safaa Khalaf · November 2021
  • The image shows a cluttered scene filled with a massive amount of discarded items, including various types of debris, appliances, and objects that appear to be from different categories. Amidst this chaotic environment, a person is seen walking through the debris, navigating the piles of junk. The area looks like a dump or recycling site, emphasizing the vast accumulation of waste and the struggle to find salvageable materials within. “Boots on the Ground” leave footprints: the Anthropogenic Legacy of the US Military in the Middle East Bruce Stanley · September 2021
