The first hug, the first look, the first moment of a love that was born before it even arrived.
Between cuts and stitches, an eternal bond is born. In the mother\'s smile, the proof that all the waiting was worth it. In her arms, the first comfort of a new life.
On a trip to Fernando de Noronha, I came across flocks of Brown Boobies hunting sardines on the edge of Conceição beach. The synchronicity of the boobies gave me perfect moments to take some photos.

A estrada infinita que serpenteia em meio às majestosas montanhas da Cordilheira dos Andes, em San Pedro de Atacama, é uma jornada de descoberta e maravilha. À medida que você avança pela estrada sinuosa, é envolvido por uma paisagem surreal, onde o céu azul profundo se encontra com a terra árida e imponente. Cada curva revela uma nova vista panorâmica, com vulcões adormecidos pontilhando no horizonte erguendo-se contra o deserto dourado.
Nessa estrada aparentemente sem fim, você se sente pequeno diante da vastidão da natureza e da imensidão do universo. O ar rarefeito e puro inspira uma sensação de liberdade e contemplação, enquanto o silêncio do deserto amplifica cada pensamento e emoção. Cada quilômetro percorrido é uma oportunidade para se conectar profundamente com a essência selvagem e indomada das montanhas, permitindo que a mente se perca na grandiosidade da paisagem.
É uma viagem que transcende o tempo e o espaço, onde a beleza intocada da natureza ecoa a eternidade das montanhas. Na estrada infinita de San Pedro de Atacama, a aventura e a serenidade se fundem em uma experiência única e inesquecível, onde a alma se eleva ao ritmo tranquilo das montanhas e o coração se perde na vastidão do horizonte.

Two small squids mating during a blackwater dive in Lembeh Strait.
The photos were taken in a blackwater dive, a type of dive where you go during the night to try to find some different creatures, some of them in larval stage or juvenile. Sometimes you can witness some mindblowing behavior as well, like these two squids mating. They were really small (the bigger was probably around 5cm) and the action didn't take too long.

In bodyscape photography, photographers capture not only the external appearance but also the internal essence of their models. Every curve, every shadow, every detail is carefully recorded, revealing deep layers of emotion and meaning.
We believe that beauty lies in imperfection and breaking traditional patterns. Every scar, every wrinkle, every mark, every look, and every expression help to form a biography, adding depth and authenticity to the portrait.

This striking photograph captures the harsh yet captivating landscape of the northeastern Brazilian sertão during a period of extreme drought. Taken in Curaçá, Bahia, the image showcases a grayish-blue sky with thin cirrostratus clouds. The dry trees and twisted shrubs stand in stark contrast against the exposed, cracked red soil, painting a vivid picture of the arid environment. This scene is emblematic of the caatinga, a unique biome characterized by its dry, thorny vegetation and adaptability to severe drought conditions.
Curaçá is an important location within the caatinga, known for its rich cultural heritage and resilience in the face of challenging climatic conditions. The town has a history deeply intertwined with the survival and sustainability practices of its inhabitants. This photograph not only highlights the raw beauty of the caatinga but also underscores the resilience of the people living in this harsh yet beautiful landscape.

In the darkness of the ethereal stage, the body rises like a living sculpture, carved by light and shadow. Each delineated muscle tells the story of inner strength, a dance suspended in time, where gravity is defied by sheer will to exist. This image is an ode to resilience and the raw beauty of the human form, transcending the physical to touch the sublime.
Introducing the \"Cowboys Under the Moonlight\" series.
In this series, I seek to invest in an old passion of mine: the Western genre.
As we are in the 21st century, photographing the Old West is unfortunately only a contemplative endeavor. Therefore, my idea as a photographer is to pay tribute to this turbulent, swift, and highly significant period in American culture through revisionism with a modern project, in today\'s world.
Despite metropolises increasingly dominating the space as the natural habitat for humans, the rural environment continues to be the dominant space for millions of individuals across the American continent.
This series aims to capture this lifestyle during beautiful full moon nights.
I hope you enjoy it.

– Рейтинг фотографов по странам и городам строится на основе 3-х лучших фотографий автора и их относительной позиции в каждой отдельной номинации. Рейтинг в номинации "Мобильная фотография" учитывается в меньшей степени для формирования рейтинга. В списке по странам и городам показывается одна фотография автора с лучшим рейтингом.
– В списке опубликованы только работы которые прошли 2-й этап голосования.
– В рейтинге лучших фотографий учитывается только одна — самая сильная — работа от каждого автора. Даже если у фотографа опубликовано несколько работ, в расчёте позиции используется только одна, с наившим рейтингом. Поэтому порядок фотографий в списке может не совпадать с итоговым положением автора в рейтинге.
– The rating of photographers by countries and cities is based on the three best photos of the author and their relative position in each separate nomination. Rating in the nomination "Mobile Photography" is taken into account to a lesser extent for rating formation. The list by country and city shows one photo of the author with the best rating.
– Only those photos have been published in the list that passed the second stage of voting.
– Only one strongest photo from each author is counted in the Best Photos ranking. Even if a photographer has several published works, only the highest-rated one is used to calculate their ranking position. As a result, the order of photos in the list may not match the author's final ranking position.
