Movie Premiere of IT’S BEEN A MINUTE a Review of YEAR IN PICTURES • Review of 2023

My contribution, besides editing 9 million image down to 365, is my most recent project: NEVER GIVE UP!

covered a little bit of Santiago Chile PanAm Para Games. Am inspired by handicap who compete in sports. Especially those handicapped not from birth. Hurt by fellow mankind:

A. Collateral Victim damage from criminal violence

B. War or Conflict (mines, IEDs etc)

C. Domestic Abuse (one man was blinded by jealous girlfriend)

Loved covering these people in Chile a few months ago.

They, who are disabled, blind for example, yet do not let it slow them down.

Will followup and do Paris Olympics Para Games to keep telling their stories!

Despite their tragic events, rose from their own nightmare!

To me, just competing, they are all CHAMPIONS:)

MY HEROES!

Scott Mc Kiernan Presents zReportage.com Issue #924 Story of the Week: Published TUESDAY January zReportage.com Issue #924 Story of the Week: Published TUESDAY January 23, 2024: ‘THIRSTY Europe’ by ZUMA Partner agency Contacto photo-journalist’s Carlos Castro, Cesar Ortiz, Fernando Sanchez, Fabian Simon, Lorena Sopana, Lex Zea, David Zorrakino: Europe is facing its worst drought in at least 500 years, with two-thirds of the continent in a state of alert or warning, reducing inland shipping, electricity production and the yields of certain crops. Catalonia is suffering with reservoirs that provide water for about 6 million people, including Spain’s second-biggest city Barcelona, filled to just 18 percent of their capacity an extreme and unprecedented low, even though nearly 45% of drinking water consumption depends on them. By comparison, Spain’s reservoirs as a whole are at 43 percent of their capacity. Spanish authorities and experts point to the impact of climate change in the increasingly hot and dry weather. Tighter water restrictions went into effect and Barcelona may need to have fresh water shipped in by boat in the coming months to ensure drinking water supplies for its 5.5 million inhabitants. Welcome to ‘THIRSTY Europe’

Scott Mc Kiernan Presents zReportage.com Issue #923 Story of the Week: Published TUESDAY, January 16, 2024: ‘Sanctuary City Blues’ Pictures by ZUMA Press represented Chicago Tribune’s photographer’s Antonio Perez, Armando L. Sanchez and Chris Sweda and Story By reporter Nell Salzman: When the governor of Texas started busing migrants elsewhere in 2023, the border crisis arrived in places like Chicago, which has to provide housing for the thousands of mostly Venezuelan migrants. Southern border states are sending migrants to Chicago and other immigration-friendly U.S. cities that have no clear plan to care for them. Police stations have become the most visible evidence of how the wave of asylum seekers arriving are stretching the ‘Windy City’ to the limit. Welcome to ‘Sanctuary City Blues’.
