We’ve invited three photographers working in macro photography to share one image they consider among their best. From split-second decisions to carefully crafted compositions, they reveal the thinking, technique and experience behind the shot, offering insight into not just how the image was made, but why it matters: https://amateurphotographer.com/technique/macro_photography/three-leading-close-up-macro-photographers-share-their-best-shots-how-they-took-them-and-why/

Muhammad Amdad Hossain's long-term photojournalism projects explore climate change, environmental crisis, and human resilience—particularly in Bangladesh. His ongoing body of work, Flood Crisis, documents the recurring floods that displace millions of people every year from districts including Kurigram, Feni, and Chattogram.

Entire villages are submerged as rivers overflowed and heavy rainfall inundated homes, roads, and farmland. In 2024 alone, more than 5.8 million people were affected, with dozens of lives lost and widespread damage to infrastructure and livelihoods.

Muhammad's work is a timely reminder of ongoing issues that are affecting populations around the world. He tells Jessica Miller more about his work that covers themes of survival, loss, and the quiet strength of communities living with water as a constant reality: https://amateurphotographer.com/iconic-images/these-powerful-photographs-of-the-bangladeshi-floods-will-make-you-stop-and-think-harder-about-climate-change
