Sebastião Salgado is a Brazilian documentary photographer and activist. One of his big projects — Genesis — is currently showing at the National Museum of Singapore. This exhibit contains almost 250 black and white photos, technically stunning, displaying the remote and (in many cases) fragile elements of our planet. Salgado spent 8 years traveling 8 months per year to take the photos. One is displayed below, showing Waura Indians in Mato Grosso, Brazil.
The next three photos were shot outside the National Museum and the final three were from nearby Fort Canning Park, an important historic site in Singapore, which includes tropical plants of incredible scale and a no longer used lighthouse.

I like those funny ladies on the bench. Also the Salgado exhibit sounds beautiful.
