Das Foto Licence to kill von laif Fotografin Britta Jaschinski steht auf der Shortlist des Wildlife Photographer of the Year 2020 People’s Choice Award. Aktuell läuft die Abstimmung auf der Webseite.
Licence to Kill: Britta’s photographs of items seized at airports and borders across the globe are a quest to understand why some individuals continue to demand wildlife products, even if this causes suffering and, in some cases, pushes species to the brink of extinction.
This zebra head was confiscated at a border point in the USA. Most likely, the hunter was not able to show proof that the zebra was killed with a license. Britta found the use of a shopping trolley to move the confiscated item ironic, posing the question: wildlife or commodity? © Britta Jaschinski/laif
Zudem ist ihr Foto Dead to Fashion beim Wettbewerb Europäischer Naturfotograf des Jahres 2020 der Gesellschaft für Naturfotografie e.V ausgezeichnet worden.
