Sorry for the wall of text...

I carefully paged through my manual, and did several searches for things like "thermometer" - what I saw earlier today was a thermometer and a set of bars with the first one lit. All indications were that my camera was overheating?

I was shooting from our car today - a photo drive, as we have done before. The car was cool, but not so cold as to need extra clothing, and not hot. The camera spent time both in sun and shade. It never showed the 2nd bar. I was shooting still pictures, not movies (as the web article suggested). At one point I pulled the battery out and it was slightly warm, but not hot. The indicator would remain for a while, then might go away - only to return when taking a few more pictures.

Blowing the AC in the car on the camera did not make the icon go away.

I am not to sure what is going on. After returning home, I swapped out the battery for my other one and was not able to re-create the issue (even taking rapid pictures), I swapped the batteries back again and was still not able to re-create with the battery used on the drive.

One of the batteries was accidentally washed in the laundry, but they both seem to work, and take a charge, and run the camera equally well. I should have marked the washed one - now I am not sure which one it was. The washed battery had one of those plastic covers over the connectors. Anyway both batteries are acting perfectly for the moment.

What to do?

I took this photo while working on a story about Carnival in Brazil. In the back of an old warehouse, I came across this upside-down Obama figure wearing a Uncle Sam hat, right next to a blindfolded Lady Justice statue. Both covered in dust and completely forgotten. In times of political polarization and ideological battles, the scene really caught my eye.

Religion continues to play a significant role in shaping societies and public opinion, even among those who don’t follow a particular faith.

I captured this photo of a religious woman in Kyiv during the declaration of independence of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church.

A few days later, a major Russian news outlet used the same image to claim that the Ukrainian church had ceased to exist.

It’s a small example of how symbols and narratives are often caught in the middle of larger political and cultural disputes.

This photo is part of a project I worked on called Favela Kombat: Girls Fight Back, and it was truly something special to be part of. I spent time visiting different favelas across Rio de Janeiro, where I met women who had all faced some form of violence, loss, or struggle. What connected them was a powerful choice they made: they decided to fight back through Mixed Martial Arts.

Each of them had a dream. Some hoped to one day step into the UFC ring. Others simply wanted to feel strong again. In a place where opportunities are often scarce, they found strength in the rhythm of training, in the sweat of each round, and in the sisterhood they built along the way.

As a photographer, I was there to document it all. But more than taking photos, I left with stories, lessons, and a deep admiration for their resilience. These women showed me that fighting back isn't just about fists. It's about reclaiming who you are, one punch at a time.
