One of my first stories for Geographic, I went deep into a remote area of Papua New Guinea. The government was going to turn a pristine, totally unexplored region of rainforest over to logging interests or create a national park. We accomplished a multi-week trek into the area, as well as about a month in the village of Wagu, pictured here in a 45-second exposure, the light from a villagers lantern "painting" the front of each hut as he walked through the frame.
