With picturesque views of the Indian Ocean and a virtually flat swath of white, sandy beach, Broome, Australia’s Cable Beach has attracted tourists for decades. Add a camel ride at sunset, where their silhouettes are reflected by the wet sand and bleed into the warm hues of a fading day, and it’s no surprise why most Australians consider this a once-in-a-lifetime experience. Recently Lauren Bath made a trip out to Broome and documented this absolutely breathtaking event — her photos are so compelling that they almost make us feel as if we’re there.

Throngs of men and women peddle their flowers, garlands and wreaths each day in Kolkata’s Malik Ghat Flower Market, with visitors wading through a riot of colors, smells and culture just to get a bouquet of marigolds. Danish photographer Ken Hermann set out to capture a snippet of this sensory overload via the way male flower salesmen dress. The series, “Flower Man”, features dozens of vendors removed from the market and posed before the Hooghly River. The smog actually proved to be of benefit to Hermann, as it dilutes the backdrop and allows viewers to truly focus on the flowers’ saturated hues. Check out more at Slate.
