EDITORS COMMENTS
This print by Ken Gillespie showcases the aftermath of the Sawback Burn, a deliberate fire set in 1993 with the aim of rejuvenating the forest and wildlife habitat in Banff National Park, Alberta. The image captures the serene beauty of nature's resilience as it emerges from destruction. In this daytime shot, light filters through the evergreen trees that stand tall amidst a landscape marked by bareness and distant ruins. The burnt remnants serve as a poignant reminder of the devastating power of forest fires. However, they also symbolize hope and renewal as new life begins to emerge from within. The photographer skillfully captures the sense of emptiness and isolation in this rural scene. With no people present, one can truly appreciate nature's ability to heal itself over time. The vertical composition emphasizes both the height and vastness of these majestic evergreens against an open sky. Through his lens, Gillespie conveys not only the destructive force unleashed upon this area but also its potential for rebirth. This colour image invites viewers to reflect on our relationship with nature and our responsibility towards preserving it for future generations
