Winners of the 2025 Close-Up Photographer of the Year #nature #photography

Emerald Glow. 3rd Place, Young. A Cuban tree frog in the photographer’s backyard in Florida. Hawkins-Kimmel: “During the heat of the day, I uncovered this Cuban tree frog hiding in the leaf of a banana tree in my backyard. The frog was very calm and allowed me to slip a flashlight under the leaf to create this effect. My 100mm lens ensured that I didn’t need to get too close, so as not to stress out the frog.”
In the Crowd. Finalist, Young. A group of flamingos in Camargue, France. Godin: “It was the courtship season for flamingos. They were constantly lowering and raising their heads. I had this photo in mind and wanted one flamingo to be sharp in the middle of other blurred flamingos. So I concentrated on one particular flamingo and followed it with my eyes, only pressing the shutter button when it was surrounded by several other flamingo heads.”
Inside the Pack. 2nd Place, Animals. Arctic wolves on the sea ice in a frozen fjord on Ellesmere Island, Canada. Eshel: “Lying on the sea ice of a frozen fjord, I experienced a moment of pure magic when a pack of Arctic wolves approached me out of sheer curiosity. They came so close I could feel their breath, yet I never sensed aggression, only wonder. These wolves, unlike others, have never been hunted or threatened by humans. In the remote wilderness of northern Ellesmere Island, they have no…
Spider Web. 3rd Place, Animals. A Eurasian beaver approaches a spider’s web in Kiskunság National Park, Hungary. Máté: “Years ago, I managed to intervene at the last minute to stop the water department from clear-cutting trees along a 2km stretch of canal. Since then, we’ve worked together. I monitor and notify them of any trees obstructing water traffic, while they avoid unnecessary clear-cutting, preserving a thriving habitat. Beavers returned to this area in 2015, nearly two centuries after …

Designing a team of agents
I continue to experiment with AI in the context of software engineering. I’m fortunate that my team supports me in exploring different ways to improve our daily work. This week, I designed a team of autonomous agents to implement features, from design to implementation. Why autonomous agents? A long time ago, we were delighted when the IDE offered auto-completion. In the previous two years, things have changed. A lot. Coding assistants have become our primary interfaces for coding.

A profile of Google DeepMind philosopher Iason Gabriel, whose work has tracked, and in many cases predicted, the ethical challenges posed by the success of LLMs (Robert P Baird/The Guardian)

‘There’s this deep mystery of what, actually, is this thing?’: the philosopher inside Google DeepMind AI
The long read: Since 2017, Iason Gabriel has worked at the tech giant, trying to anticipate – and think through – the impact of AI. But as commercial and geopolitical pressures escalate, can ethicists make any difference?

Hey, kids, it’s #tick season! You’ve probably heard about #LymeDisease (it’s nasty) but there are other tick-borne pathogens and stuff to watch out for, like one that will make you allergic to red meat, for instance. Here’s a #DailyShow

#footpathFriday , I'm back! here with a beautiful path that we walked last year in the #schwarzwald .
#eineSpurWilder

This image captures a serene and enchanting forest scene, evoking a sense of mystery and natural beauty. A wooden boardwalk, slightly elevated and made of planks, winds its way through the dense forest. The boardwalk is surrounded by lush greenery, including moss-covered trees, ferns, and other vegetation, creating a rich and vibrant tapestry of green hues. The sunlight filters through the canopy above, casting dappled light and shadow on the boardwalk and the forest floor. This interplay of li…

This November, California voters will weigh what could become America’s first-ever tax on net worth.
The Billionaire Tax Act,
a ballot initiative put forth by health workers after Donald Trump blew holes in the state Medicaid budget,
would impose a one-time tax of 5 percent on personal wealth exceeding $1 billion.
With polls indicating majority support,
tech oligarchs have threatened an exodus
and crafted competing measures,
bankrolling them to the…

How to tax a billionaire
America's oligarchs guard their hoards jealously—but there may be a way in.
