Chris Packham

Chris Packham Instagram – Orang Rimba child , Sumatra . Canon 5D SR , 70-200mm F4 . Not all these displaced people now live in government or NGO permanent housing . The majority squat in temporary shanties in oil palm plantations . The irony is sickening . They scavenge the fallen fruits and try to find work in the villages but find integration difficult . They are ostracised and persecuted . One man told me ‘it doesn’t matter , we will stay here until the forest grows again and everything will be good again’ . I nearly wept . For the whole story watch ‘Chris Packham ; In Search of the Lost Girl’ , BBC2 , Sunday 9pm . #canon #canonphotography #canonuk #photography #photooftheday #sumatra #orangrimba #portrait | Posted on 26/Jan/2018 00:22:49
