國家地理:追逐抹香鯨的水下攝影師(2)
Skerry captures images that are unique, memorable, and award winning -- but he has a higher ambition. As "a photojournalist first and foremost, I work with researchers and provide them with photographs that are useful" in their study of ocean flora and fauna, he says.
斯科利拍攝的影像是獨特、令人難忘的，而且獲得過獎項--但他有更大的野心。他說自己“主要是一名攝影記者，跟研究員一起工作，提供有幫助的照片，”供他們用于針對海洋動植物群的研究中。
Sperm whales are majestic, intelligent, and maddeningly elusive, escaping to ocean depths when pursued or spooked. Still, their ranks have been thinned by whaling, overfishing, and other contact with humans, to the point that the world's conservationists assess them as either vulnerable or endangered. Skerry wants his photos to inform the scientific research and education efforts that will bring whales more attention and potentially some relief. "I feel a sense of responsibility and urgency to make people care about the marine giants," he says. "I want to give them, for lack of a better word, some humanity."
抹香鯨很雄偉、聰明，并且難以捉摸到令人抓狂，它們被追趕或受驚嚇時會逃往海洋深處。盡管如此，它們的族群數(shù)仍因捕鯨業(yè)、過度捕撈及其他和人類的接觸而減少，以至于生態(tài)環(huán)保人士評估抹香鯨的狀況不是瀕危就是瀕臨滅絕。斯科利希望他的照片能為科學(xué)研究和教育提供信息，為鯨魚帶來更多關(guān)注。“我感到一種責(zé)任感和迫切性，想讓人們關(guān)心這些海洋巨獸，”他說。“我想給它們一些人道關(guān)懷，沒有比這更好的詞了?！?/p>
