Waiting for the red-crowned crane to return

On the morning of October 22, at Ho Chi Minh City Book Street, the photo exhibition Waiting for the day the cranes return by photographer Nguyen Truong Sinh (running until October 26) opened, showing the journey of survival, migration, and reproduction of the rare red-crowned crane.

56 large-size photos (90 x 90 cm) printed in sharp detail, each with bilingual captions in Vietnamese and English, are 56 moments that touch the viewer's heart, with each photo representing a beauty, a story about the red-crowned crane, and at the same time awakening human responsibility towards nature.

After nearly ten years of traveling through wetlands in Vietnam, Cambodia, Myanmar and Australia, photographer Nguyen Truong Sinh, founder of the Vietnam Nature Photography Club, has just completed an elaborate photo book Red-crowned Cranes, which was released on this occasion.

The work is 372 pages long in color with more than 400 photos selected from more than 100,000 original files - a rare photographic work that comprehensively records the life, behavior and ecological environment of the red-crowned crane - a symbol of love and life in East Asian culture.

"Only when the grasslands are revived, when people still know how to love and preserve them, can the sound of cranes return to the skies of Vietnam," photographer Nguyen Truong Sinh shared.
