EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph by Sofie Steenhoudt titled "Whale Mouth," the viewer is drawn into a mesmerizing world of shapes, lines, and contrasts. The image captures a man, with his back towards the camera, as he walks determinedly up a set of stairs, framed by the arches of an old bridge. The play of light and shadow creates a graphic and geometric composition, with the shapes of the stairs and the negative space between them forming intricate patterns. The man's silhouette, outlined against the cloudy sky, adds to the sense of depth and perspective in the photograph. The contrast between the dark shapes of the man and the stairs, and the light, ethereal clouds above, creates a striking visual contrast. The use of negative space around the man and the bridge adds to the sense of isolation and introspection, as if the man is lost in thought. The title "Whale Mouth" may seem unrelated at first, but upon closer inspection, one can see the resemblance of the arches of the bridge to the shape of a whale's mouth. This connection adds an element of surrealism to the photograph, inviting the viewer to explore the image further and discover new meanings. The photograph was taken in Vroenhoven, Belgium, and the use of monochrome adds to the timeless and classic feel of the image. The point of view from below, looking up at the man and the bridge, adds a sense of wonder and curiosity, making this photograph a true work of fine art.
