GENEVA - Reuters photographer Denis Balibouse spent years shooting fast-moving subjects in fast-breaking events – the winning goal in a Europa League soccer clash, the confrontation in an Extinction Rebellion street protest.
“Everybody talks about the melting of the glaciers. But visually how could we show that?” said the father-of-two who works out of Reuters’ Geneva bureau. He decided to pick a selection of old vistas from online public libraries, then head out and take a photograph from the same spots, from the same perspectives. He would juxtapose old and new and show what had changed.
“The Aletsch glacier is 20km long. In two days and a bit of walking I got four different pictures ... The rocks haven’t moved, but the vegetation has changed quite a bit.”He tried to match lighting conditions to get as close a match as possible. “Most of the old pictures were taken in afternoon, or later afternoon. In the 19th century they needed a lot more time to climb. They carried their equipment on horses or donkeys.
