In photos: Fragile lives and life in the mangroves of the world
From India's diverse coastline to the Florida Everglades in the United States, photographs of the mangrove forests of the world document a varied, ecologically-rich tapestry of life but tell one urgent story: that these ecosystems are the risk of collapse The photographs were among the 3,303 entries from 78 nations for the 11th edition of the Mangrove Photography Awards 2025, organised by the Mangrove Action Project, a US-based non-profit. More than a hundred of these photographs were shortlisted for six categories: people, landscape, underwater, threats, wildlife and conservation stories. The awards were open to amateur and professional photographers. Announcing the winners on Saturday, the Mangrove Action Project said in a press release that the 'winning images capture the urgent race to save these endangered but precious ecosystems, found in 125 countries and territories around the world'. The nonprofit said that as 'ecological powerhouses', mangroves perform vital functions such as sequestering five times more carbon than terrestrial forests, protecting more than 15 million people from flooding and support the livelihoods of millions of fishers and coastal communities. They are also vital habitats for countless marine and terrestrial species. But at least 50% of the world's mangrove ecosystems are at risk of collapse by 2050, said the nonprofit, identifying urban development, deforestation, aquaculture and sea level rise as major contributing factors. Thirteen of the 100 shortlisted images were from India, especially from the Sundarban mangrove forests that span West Bengal and neighbouring Bangladesh. This entry, a runner up in the Wildlife (mammals) category, shows tigers in the Sundarbans. The photographer, in his note, says that the Sundarban mangroves are challenging because tiger territories keep getting submerged every six hours according to the moon cycle. He was lucky to photograph the big cat mark its territory – rare behaviour in the mangroves. 'Only funny part was, the entire urine went on the subadult tiger's face,' said the photographer. Another shortlisted entry in the same category shows a Bengal tiger looking straight at the photographer in the Sundarbans in India. This shortlisted entry shows 'two mothers'. Mother nature and the jungle cat mother are both protecting their child, says the photographer who waited three hours to take this image while on a safari in the Indian Sundarbans. This entry in the Wildlife (Other Species) category shows a massive crocodile with a mudskipper in the Indian Sundarbans. This entry in the Conservation and Restoration category is of the Bhitarkanika Wildlife Sanctuary in Odisha, a rich mangrove teaming with some of the best wildlife in India. The photographer spent a day with the hard-working forest guards who patrol the sanctuary by boat and on foot. 'The sheer will to save forest and wildlife drives them to work each day,' says the photographer's note. This photograph, shortlisted in the Threats category, is from one of the wetland lakes in Navi Mumbai where mangroves had been cut. This shortlisted entry in the Threats category portrays the 'harsh reality of water scarcity in Bangladesh's low-lying coastal belt', writes the photographer. Like the elderly woman and her grandson, families are forced to walk two-three kilometres for freshwater. 'This scene captures not only their daily struggle but also the broader environmental crisis facing the Sundarbans' mangrove communities – where once-abundant rivers now carry salt, not life,' said the photographer. In this winning entry in the People (Livelihoods) category, a fisherman rewards his otters in Bangladesh. The photographer writes that there are only a handful of otter fisherman left and their unusual method of fishing has been handed down from father to son for centuries. The photographer describes how they fish: 'the trainer adult otters are tethered and the younger otters swim free. The otters chase fish from the muddy banks into the awaiting nets and after each fishing session get their share of the catch.' This winning entry in the Threats category shows the 'jarring sight' of a mountain of waste rising above the canopy of one of the one of Bali's island's struggling mangrove ecosystems, in plain view but somehow hidden in plain sight. 'The scene is a quiet warning – of resilience under threat and of what lies just out of frame in paradise,' said the photographer. 'I took this photo to show the uneasy edge where mass tourism, urban waste, and vital ecosystems collide.' This winner in Landscape (From the Air) category shows 'mangroves and modernity', in the United Arab Emirates. ''Birds' Eye View of the Hunt' could be the last of shot the Roseate Spoonbills, the Everglades' iconic birds, whose very health and survival is intrinsically linked with the health of the Everglades, said the Mangrove Action Project According to Cook, Florida Bay was the primary nestling region of the birds in the US, but the species is becoming rare as sea level rise is submerging their habitat. The spoonbills are tactile foragers, said Cook – they feed by touch. But for that, the birds depend on on shallow water with high densities of fish. 'With climate-change induced sea-level rise, these critical lower water depths in the mangroves are increasingly failing to be met, fish densities are insufficient for effective foraging, and fewer birds are able to breed,' said Cook.

Rebel Wilson Sued By Production Company For Sabotaging Film's Release, Actor Reacts
Last Updated: Last year, Rebel was hit with a defamation lawsuit after accusing the producers of The Deb of stopping it from premiering at the Toronto International Film Festival in September. Rebel Wilson is being sued by the production company behind her directorial debut. UK-based AI Film has filed the lawsuit in Australia, accusing the 44-year-old actress of deliberately sabotaging the film's release in order to devalue the movie and pressure AI Film and Australian company Dunburn Debutantes Commissioning Company – named as the second plaintiff in the lawsuit – into selling their stake to her company Camp Sugar. According to The Guardian, AI Film said in a statement: 'These proceedings are regrettable but essential to ensure The Deb's timely release. It's a joyous, fun film, and we are sure that audiences are going to love it." Lead actress Charlotte MacInnes said: 'I love this film and I can't wait for it to be released … it would be wonderful if these proceedings can help make that happen." Wilson responded to the lawsuit with a message on Instagram Stories saying: 'Apparently I'm being sued in Australia. It makes no sense. As the director, producer and co-star who nurtured a project called THE DEB for 5 years from a 3 page idea into a gorgeous feature film – I want nothing more than to have this film released and have been working tirelessly behind the scenes to get this to happen. To say otherwise is complete nonsense. I'm so proud of the film!" She added: 'In my opinion, this is continued bullying and harassment from UK financiers of the project Amanda Ghost, Gregor Cameron and Vince Holden after I exposed their dodgy behaviour. They tried to prevent the film from premiering there (they lost) and now they've tried to stop the film being released because of a baseless US lawsuit and now a further Australian one. I've moved on, now directing my 2nd movie and loving it. But regarding THE DEB all I can literally say is 'F*** my life" with tears in my eyes and a heavy heart. Everyone who worked on the movie and who knows me KNOWS I put my blood, sweat and tears into this. Everyone knows I'm a 'truth teller' when it comes to vile people in the industry. I just want this movie to come out and for all the amazingly talented contributors to be recognized for their sensational work! (sic)." Last year, Rebel was hit with a defamation lawsuit after accusing the producers of The Deb of stopping it from premiering at the Toronto International Film Festival in September. Rebel made an Instagram video in which she hit out at producers Amanda Ghost and Gregor Cameron, and executive producer Vince Holden, accusing them of 'bad behaviour" on set. She also accused them of embezzling funds from the film and called them 'vile and disgusting", claiming she had encountered 'absolute viciousness and retaliatory behaviour" after reporting their actions. However, the trio denied all accusations and hit back in a lawsuit, filed at the Superior Court of California, County of Los Angeles. view comments First Published: July 26, 2025, 15:42 IST Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's.

Kiss cam scandal: Astronomer taps Chris Martin's ex Gwyneth Paltrow for PR
Hollywood actress and lifestyle brand Goop founder Gwyneth Paltrow has entered the tech chat — temporarily — to address the fallout from a viral "kiss cam" moment at a Coldplay concert. The incident involved the very public discovery of an extramarital affair between the US-based AI startup Astronomer's former CEO and chief people officer. Chris Martin's ex Gwyneth Paltrow addresses Astronomer kiss cam scandal In a tongue-in-cheek video posted Friday on Astronomer's official X account, the Hollywood actress, who was married to Coldplay's Chris Martin for over a decade before "consciously uncoupling" in 2014, declared she's been hired on a 'very temporary basis' to represent the New York-based AI startup's 300-plus employees. Her mission? Not to talk about the kiss cam scandal that's been lighting up social media for the past week. 'Thank you for your interest in Astronomer,' Paltrow says at the start of the video. 'Astronomer has gotten a lot of questions over the last few days, and they wanted me to answer the most common ones,' she says. The video opens with someone typing, 'OMG! What the actual F...,' before cutting to Paltrow cheerfully praising the company's AI capabilities, 'Yes, Astronomer is the best place to run Apache Airflow'. 'We've been thrilled so many people have a newfound interest in data workflow automation,' she adds. In another clip, she interrupts a question beginning with, 'How is your social media team holding…' to instead announce that registration is still open for Astronomer's Beyond Analytics event in September. 'We will now be returning to what we do best — delivering game-changing results for our customers,' she says, smiling. The Coldplay kiss cam incident The message follows a very public scandal involving former CEO Andy Byron and then-Chief People Officer Kristin Cabot, who were caught in an awkward embrace on a 'kiss cam' during a July 16 Coldplay concert near Boston. Both executives — who are married to other people — quickly became the subject of online speculation after dodging the camera in a way that even Coldplay frontman Chris Martin couldn't ignore. 'Either they're having an affair, or they're just very shy,' Martin joked from the stage, in a clip that's been shared widely across platforms. The fallout was swift. Byron stepped down on July 19, and Cabot resigned on Thursday. In a July 18 statement, the company said it had launched an internal investigation and added, 'Our leaders are expected to set the standard in both conduct and accountability.' Astronomer confirmed Thursday that Cabot was the woman in the video. Neither she nor Byron has publicly commented. Byron's wife, Megan Kerrigan, and Cabot's husband, Andrew Cabot, have also stayed silent. Astronomer's PR spin gets applause The AI startup's PR stunt seems to be paying off, with users praising the team and laughing along. One user commented,'You hired the Coldplay singer's ex-wife. Extraordinary.' Another wrote, "Your PR team deserves a raise!" The video has amassed nearly 10 million views on X in under 12 hours.
