90 Years | 90 Images | 90 Women
To mark the occasion of her 90th birthday, Jane Goodall is collaborating with Vital Impacts and 90 influential women photographers in a campaign dedicated to “reimagining our relationships to the natural world.”
There are currently 31 images for sale, as part of “The Nature of Hope: 90 Years of Jane Goodall’s Impact” series that started on April 1, with the work of 10 more artists being released each week, according to the website of sale host Vital Impacts, a women-led, non-profit organization that uses art to support those protecting the planet.
Among the beautifully rendered images by world-renowned wildlife photographers is this self-portrait taken early in her career by Goodall herself.
Says Dr. Goodall, “I had to find a place where there was a tree that was just right for balancing the camera. I had to set up the tripod and fiddle about until I had the tripod and the imagined image of me framed just right. That was in the days before digital so I had to wait a long time before I got the results back from National Geographic. I was pretty proud of myself. I love that picture.”
