Photography has been around for almost 200 years. The evolution through which the technical aspect of it has gone through is remarkable. From glass plate to metal one, from a whole lab following you in your wagon while you are trailing the world, photography is now a simple click away on our photo. What those images are depicting has remained to an extent the same. Fashion has evolved. Portraits of family or strangers, and landscapes far away and close by, the family’s pet, the brand-new car, the ravages of wars, the everyday life – all have been recorded through light. They are a record of memories, of the decisive moment as the well-known photographer Henri Cartier-Bresson coined. They are an analysis of truth and falsehood – of denial and concealment, of interpretation, of bringing in or keeping out – we are framing the moment on which we want to pause, capture. They are a story that the one behind the device wants to tell to the world. Here are 5 photographers who have adopted the .ART who have in common their medium but their own unique way of telling their visual stories.


 

Photography is the art of creating long-lasting images by recording light digitally or by analog means.

Ali Shokri is a passionate nature photographer and YouTuber, hailing from Iran, with a strong focus on the life of trees. He believes that each tree, like a human being, has a tale to tell, and when a tree dies, a whole story is interrupted, altering destinies for the worse. Ali feels a deep connection to the trees, seeing their bundled forms on trucks as a haunting reminder of our mistreatment. He believes that our disregard for nature gradually strips away our humanity, reducing the once vibrant foliage to ash and smoke. Ali’s dedication to capturing the beauty and significance of trees has led him to exhibit his work in individual and group exhibitions. He has also been honored as a TED speaker, sharing his insights into the life of trees, and published a book called “The Passion of Trees” through Matador England UK. With his Canon camera, Ali captures the clarity and essence of his subjects, inviting viewers to connect with nature on a profound level.
