What does this visualization (including caption) say about toxics?

Toxicity is related to any place, daily life is surrounded by contaminant activities and pollutants are part of population activities necessary to survive in the current economy.

Can you suggest ways to enrich this image to extend its ethnographic import?

Although at first sight, the image shows a direct impact on nature, it would be helpful to allocate three or four small photos at one side about plastics or toxic detriments on the coastline. This can be helpful to trace the line with the following photos about plastic toxicity.

What kind of image is this? Is it a found image or created by the ethnographer (or a combination)? What is notable about its composition | scale of attention | aesthetic?

This is an original photograph from a coastline in Panama where the author found extractive activities on the way to the mangrove forest. The darkness of the image contrasts with the background activities and gives a notion about the following context related to the toxicity present in this place.

How does this visualization (including caption) advance ethnographic insight? What message | argument | sentiment | etc. does this visualization communicate or represent?

The image shows the beginning of a toxic discovery preceded by a local human intervention. In this case, the mining of sea sand by locals represents a direct impact on nature, which introduces us to discover toxicity even on the deep nature far away from its common sources as a result of our consumption.
