The Waorani live in one of the most bio-diverse places in the world. There are also vast amounts of crude below the ground. The extraction of oil has continued to threaten the environment and the people of the Amazon for decades. This image was shot #onassignment for National Geographic.
- what about you, would you rather shoot in a city or nature?

Glad Midsommar! The Swedish-American community of Lindsborg, Kansas, celebrates Midsummer by wearing traditional Swedish folk costumes and dancing around the town's maypole. Traditionally a pagan summer solstice and fertility holiday throughout northern Europe, Midsummer today is a continued celebration of long days and the start of summer.

I Stopped Saying No | Photograph by Johanna Birch (@johannabirchphotography)

“I say ‘No’ too often,” writes #YourShotPhotographer Johanna Birch. “We were all set for a photoshoot at the historic Kenwood House in Hampstead, London. We were ready to start shooting and he asked to take his shoes off — OK. Then socks. Then he wanted to take his shirt off — OK. Sigh. Then he asked if he could put a toe in the mud. We digressed. What you can’t see are all the posh Londoners enjoying a picnic at a 17th Century estate behind him. It was so worth it.”

“Fantastic Johanna. I love it. I agree with Your Shot photographer Perry Svensson who commented, ‘That’s a lovely shot. You can really see how he is oblivious to everything else and is just concentrating on the mud.’ Your son looks like he is having so much fun. I love the trail of mud coming off his feet. I can feel his happiness, his joy, his amusement. Thank you for saying ‘Yes.’” — @natgeoyourshot Producer David Y. Lee (@davidylee)
