You can’t argue with 118 Brummies in their swimsuits: Attilio Fiumarella’s best photograph

‘I was thinking about the Terracotta Army when I took this shot of Birmingham swimmers in their local pool, which faced closure. They had to stand there for an hour, waiting for the sun to come out’

I took this image in Birmingham on 20 July 2014 – part of my first professional photography project. I had moved to the city in 2013 and I would pass this building every day on the bus on my way to the city centre. I remember looking at the facades and being impressed and intrigued by the three different entrances – what were once the first class, second class and women’s entrances.

One day I decided to get off the bus and find out what the building was. The door was open, and a nice lady welcomed me in and started to explain its history. It is the Moseley Road Baths, an Edwardian-era community building. In 2014 the second pool was still operating but the gala pool, where I took this image, was already empty. The building was in need of restoration and, without funding, the council planned to shut it down for good. The woman I met there told me lots of stories about the place – people who had come to learn to swim, how it had served as a casualty station during the second world war, and how it had even been used as a dance hall. It was a very charming place with an incredible history: as soon as I saw the gala pool, I knew I had to fill the majestic empty space.

Adolescente condenado à prisão perpétua: como sobreviventes de atirador de escola nos EUA ajudaram a fazer pressão por sentença

Colt Gray foi condenado a prisão perpétua depois de assassinar quatro pessoas em um tireoteio na escola onde estuda na Geórgia, nos EUA Jason Getz / AP Um adolescente foi condenado na terça-feira (28) nos Estados Unidos à prisão perpétua após matar quatro pessoas a tiros em uma escola do estado da Georgia em 2024. Na sexta-feira (24), Colt Gray, de 16 anos, se declarou culpado por 55 acusações, incluindo quatro homicídios: os dos professores Richard Aspinwall, de 39 anos, e Cristina Irimie, de 53 anos, e os dos estudantes Mason Schermerhorn e Christian Angulo, ambos de 14 anos. Durante o julgamento, os alunos de Apalachee High School, no condado de Barrow, a cerca de 73 quilômetros da cidade de Atlanta, deram os seus depoimentos com o apoio da polícia e do grupo de motociclistas "Mystic Saints", que foi formado após o tiroteio para dar suporte para a escola. O posicionamento dos alunos ajudou no caso, e Colt Gray não terá possibilidade de liberdade condicional. Agora no g1 Veja, abaixo, o que disseram alguns deles: A primeira testemunha a depor no julgamento foi Taylor Jones, estudante do nono ano que ficou com o fêmur fragmentado por causa de Gray. “Depois do tiroteio, eu lutei com muita ansiedade e senti que minha vida tinha acabado completamente. Eu não conseguia fazer nada que um adolescente de 14 anos normalmente seria capaz de fazer” a jovem diz. Sua colega Natalie Griffith, que também foi ferida na mesma sala de aula que Jones estava, acrescenta que se espanta facilmente com sons altos depois do ataque. Em depoimento, ela afirmou sentir raiva por Gray, falando diretamente a ele: “Eu te odeio, e estou bravo com você, porque você tinha opções. Você tinha outras opções além de entrar e matar um monte de pessoas inocentes que não tinham feito absolutamente nada contra você. Se você tivesse esperado talvez até dois meses, teria encontrado amigos. Eu teria sido seu amigo, e eu sei que um monte de gente teria sido também se você tivesse apenas esperado", disse Griffith. O caso deixou marcas emocionais e físicas nos alunos. A adolescente Nautica Walton, que foi baleada na perna lamenta a perda da normalidade; da sua inocência; e de não sentir medo de tudo. Uma reação compartilhada por Hayden Bowen. “Não consigo ficar muito tempo nos lugares. Não consigo sair de casa. Nem consigo ficar no meu próprio quarto sem sentir medo. Não consigo mais ser um adolescente normal” diz Bowen. A vida dos alunos atacados foram alteradas permanentemente, até dos que não foram feridos como Aryanna Norman; Que agora se assusta com o som de fogos de artifício porque "soam como tiros". O tribunal foi concluído com o juiz Nicholas Primm declarando que “Os mortos não voltarão à vida, os feridos não esquecerão suas feridas, e um garoto de 16 anos vai viver e morrer na prisão". *Sob supervisão de Luisa Belchior Moskovics.

Australia built a $187,000 electric fence across Wild Horse Plain, but the real reason lies beneath one of its rarest alpine wetlands

A new electrified fence protects rare alpine wetlands in Kosciuszko National Park. This enclosure safeguards endangered sphagnum bogs and associated fens from wild horse impacts. Horse activity damages these vital peatland ecosystems and their stored carbon. The $187,000 project was funded by biodiversity offsets from Snowy 2.0. This targeted measure protects a small but environmentally important area within the park.
