TERRA FLAMMA: W I L D F I R E S AT N I G H T


4 5

Since graduating with a Master's in photojournalism from University of Missouri in 2013, Stuart Palley has covered a wide range of topics for publications such as Los Angeles Times, National Geographic and the The New York Times. But it is the wildfires that rage in California that are currently capturing his fascination. “As

he explains. Growing up in Southern California, Palley has always been exposed to the effects of wildfires, but he believes they will become worse in coming years thanks to the current drought in the region. In “Terra Flamma: Wildfires at Night,” he not only aims to capture the terrible beauty of a natural phenomenon, but also to raise public awareness. He says: “If [the public] sees more beautiful pictures about fires, they’ll do more research, and understand the work that firefighters do, and better prepare their homes for wildfire.” So far, Palley has captured more than 30 wildfires at night using long exposures (he began funding the project with a highly successful Kickstarter campaign). Depending on the situation, he either takes his images from a distance, or from the closer perspective of firefighters on the scene. Often, the latter puts him in harm’s

liberated take on life shines through. Raised in Cypress, Texas, Smith has explored a variety of disciplines already: she’s earned a BA in political science, worked in natural medicine and had jobs as a social worker and at a forestry museum. But photography, which she studied in high school, was always what made her happiest, and, as she puts it, “life is too short not to follow your dreams.” She

spirits “in a way that they feel good about” and does so largely by creating a positive and engaging environment during the shoot: making fun a priority while also challenging her subjects to push past their comfort zones. Photographing exclusively in 35mm film also helps Smith to achieve the atmosphere she seeks during shoots. She says a film camera “brings a sense of nostalgia to the shoot that people seem to feel more comfortable with in my experience.” She adds: “The sturdiness of an old camera while I’m hanging off the back of motorcycle [is also a plus].” Smith

photographs.

The stripped-down nature of marrying light and dark can—at times—have a much more powerful impact than any spectrum of color can; a terrific example is “Concrete Cowboys,” a series by Philadelphia-based photojournalist Charles Mostoller. Esthetically bold and emotive, “Concrete Cowboys” portrays two teenagers, Shahir Drayton and Abdurrahman “Man-Man” Early, riding and caring for horses in the city of Philadelphia. The teens are two of several whom Malik Divers, the owner of the horses, “recruits to care for them as a way of teaching the teens work ethic and responsibility,” Mostoller explains. Mostoller’s

Cowboys was lucky—he’d seen them on horseback around the city and happened to meet them one afternoon—but establishing trust took the tried-and-true method: perseverance. “They all thought I would be gone after one afternoon but I kept coming back week after week and they began to open up to me,” he says. Mostoller also grew up around horses and stables (his mother was a semi-professional equestrian), so the teens respected his knowledge. Shot with a Nikon D4 and D3, Mostoller trailed his subjects mostly by bicycle. “Photographing a group of kids racing through urban streets on horseback is hard,” he says; the bicycle gave him the speed and maneuverability he needed. Influenced by James Nachtwey’s Inferno and Larry Burrows' Vietnam, Mostoller plans to “keep telling hopeful stories about Philadelphia that get beyond the stereotypes so often associated with inner-city life.” —Amy Touchette All photos © Charles Mostoller www.charlesmostoller.com

series,

“Abandoned,” was directly inspired by Let the Right One In—a 2008 Swedish film about a child vampire and her bond with her bullied 12-year-old neighbor—it also reflects her own experiences growing up in Russia. “With aging, you learn to live with yourself and people around you, but when you are a teenager the feeling of being abandoned, being different from everybody else can be overwhelming,” she explains. “These sorts of feelings have always been with me.” Depicting beautiful, languid young women in bare rooms lit by television sets and the starry night sky just beyond the windows, the images capture feelings of jealousy, ennui and self-loathing so difficult to put into words—and even more difficult to visualize. Cast with two models from an agency in New York City, the girls often seem otherworldly. A sense of alienation is heightened by the pallid glow of the women’s skin—an effect achieved both by the makeup artist who worked with Varaksina on set and lighting from a blue gel placed on a strobe that mimicked the twilight feel of a blinking television screen. The images echo themes seen throughout Varaksina’s work, in which she explores “women going through major changes, children creating their own worlds around them and teenagers and young adults going
