When the fire started to threaten the village, I thought that taking pictures from a distance would not tell the whole story. So, I left the observation point, inside the village, where we could see (along with other media colleagues) how the fire was spreading panoramically and headed to the houses, in order to capture the reactions and preparations of the residents, who had not evacuated the village (as requested by the authorities) so they could protect their village. I thought that if the fire really approached the houses, these would be the images that would most vividly describe the disaster and the consequences of the climate crisis we live in.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>I had intended to leave the place where I was to move my car to a safer place as the fire moved down the hill in the direction of the houses and that was when I saw from a distance a woman dressed in black moving awkwardly outside a house. I approached to see what was happening because it was one of the first houses in front of the forest. I heard her shouting towards the house, looking for her husband. Then she called me into the yard of the house and told me emotionally about all the hard work they had put into their home (which was now in danger of being lost to the fire) and the lack of government intervention to put out the fire, as she was telling me this, the flames swallowed up the pine forest behind the house. That&#8217;s the moment I took the picture. That moment was very intense and moving.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>After that, I talked to her neighbours so they would take care of her because she seemed to be losing consciousness and informed them that her husband was still in the back of the house, on the side where the fire was coming.&#8217;<\/em><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h3>Fourth place &#8211; Landry Major (USA)<\/h3>\n\t\t<div id=&quot;attachment_166352&quot;  class=\"c-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1020px\">\n\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"166352\" src=\"https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/4th-Place-Winner-Landry-Major-RacingTheStorm-copy.jpg\" alt=\"Racing the Storm - fourth place in the All About Photo Awards 2022. \u00a9 Landry Major\" width=\"1000\" height=\"716\" \/>\t\t\t<p class=\"c-caption__text\">Racing the Storm &#8211; fourth place in the All About Photo Awards 2022. \u00a9 Landry Major<\/p>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\n<p>The fourth place winner Landry Major (USA) for his image<em> Racing the Storm<\/em> from his series <em>Keepers of the West<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>Major revealed, <em>&#8216;This image was created in northern Colorado as part of my series Keepers of the West showing the remaining family run ranches in the American west.
