Do you have your ducks in a row? This farmer does. Every morning he starts the day by gathering his ducks to feed them before going to the paddy field. The ducks love to follow him.
Young ducklings imprint on whoever they spend time with within the first few days of their life. It is often their mother or siblings. In this case, it is the farmer. Imprinting is a form of learning in which animals gain a sense of species identification. In other words, if ducks follow humans, they have imprinted on humans. They will identify themselves as humans, not ducks. Reversing the imprinting process is almost impossible. An extreme example is if a duckling is separated from the mother right after birth, it is possible that it will follow whatever moves around it during its first days including balls or any other moving objects.
Growing up in Asia, shadow puppetry was quite popular. It is a powerful way to narrate a story - no distractions, just silhouettes. This image tells the story of this simple life in the simplest form - no clutter, clean, and bold. This is my shadow play about how this man’s life begins every day. The man and the ducks gather. Together.
Just for fun: Does the ugly duckling still regard herself as a duck after she finds out that she is a swan?
CURATOR NOTE
Love the silhouettes of a man and his ducks, together for a morning walk, against a soft layered background.
THE ARTIST
Hendro Soetrisno is an international award-winning photographer. He is a Master of Photography from PPA, a Master Photographer in Fine Art - Accredited in Fine Art Nature from MPI, and a Master of WPPI. He represented the United States in the World Photographic Cup and brought home the gold medal in the Nature category and the Best of Nations award. He has won more than 150 prestigious awards from reputable professional organizations worldwide including Professional Photographer of America, Wedding and Portrait Photographers International, Master Photographers International, and Australian Institute of Professional Photography. He also held several Photographer of the Year titles from various professional organizations.
More than two dozen photographers, a dozen countries, an age range of nearly 40 years (possibly more, but some won’t tell), multiple languages, and varied styles. Our team consists of members from around the world. We include photographers from Australia, Canada, England, France, Germany, India, Italy, Northern Ireland, Russia, Spain, Turkey, and the United States.
What could possibly bring this diverse group together? There’s only one thing in the world strong enough to do that: a deep love for photography.
Our collective was formed on the intentional basis of being DIFFERENT - different artists with different backgrounds, different races, languages, ability/disability, ages, and genres.
When the theme was announced there was a collective sigh, literally heard round the world. In all honesty, the theme of TOGETHER presented a challenge to nearly every single person on the team. From landscape, travel, nature, astro, portrait, fine art, urbanscape, and conceptual photographers, we’ve all literally spent the past two years ALONE.
World conditions have left everyone in isolation. The thought of “TOGETHER” was at the same time refreshing and terrifying. A few members panicked, some laughed, some left, most cringed at the thought. But in the end, the theme of TOGETHER has brought us TOGETHER.
We’ve dug through our archives, shot new images, edited like crazy, and shared critiques. Then we went back and started all over again!
This collective is the labor of our love, created with laughter, fun, and friendship. With our members spread over at least a dozen time zones, meetings were sometimes varied, crazy, and broken into smaller parts depending on the parts of the world. When you think about that accomplishment alone, accomplished with a bunch of creatives no less, you realize the depth of the loyalty to the project, to the team, and to each other.
Long late nights filled with love, laughter, jokes, craziness, and support have been the backbone of this project since the beginning.
For members of the team who are just beginning their NFT journey, it is an honor to be included with seriously talented photographers, who have been secretly discovered to be just normal people. We are all photographers but we don’t act like competitors. The community and support have been the stuff of legends. We want everyone to make it. Together as a team, we have been able to celebrate victories, face challenges, share as we have won awards, been represented by galleries, sold limited edition fine art prints, and are helping ensure everyone on our team is kicking it in the NFT world.
Through it all there is one common theme: every single member shares the same passion for photography. When asked what the best part of our team is, one member replied, “Love, kindness, love, happiness, love!”
Or, as they say in Ireland, the craic!
