DAY'S EDGE PRODUCTIONS Photographers Nathan Dappen and Morgan Heim of Day’s Edge Productions fell hard for the desert while documenting climate change impacts and water security along the US-Mexico border (“On The Line,” p. 38). “I gained a connection to a place that I had only briefly visited. I can’t wait to go back to the Chihuahuan Desert—with or without my camera,” says Nate. Morgan adds, “Seeing all the ways people with few resources are helping the environment is always inspiring.” Nathan’s work has appeared in Scientific American, National Geographic, and the Washington Post. Morgan’s images have been published by Smithsonian, NPR, and BBC Wildlife.
