EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the eerie sight of a decapitated snake head at a snake farm in Zisiqiao village, located in China's Zhejiang Province. The image, taken by photographer Aly Song on June 15,2011, showcases the unique relationship between the villagers and these reptiles. Known as "snake town". Zisiqiao is home to residents who raise over three million snakes annually for both culinary and medicinal purposes. The close-up shot allows us to examine the intricate details of this severed serpent head. Blood stains are visible on its scales, emphasizing the brutal reality of life and death within this environment. The reflection on its glossy skin adds an element of depth and mystery to the composition. In this strangely beautiful depiction of nature's cycle, we witness how Chinese culture intertwines with wildlife preservation efforts. With no human presence in sight, it becomes apparent that this photograph aims to shed light on our complex relationship with animals and their environments. The abandoned background hints at a story untold while out-of-focus elements create an ethereal atmosphere around the subject matter. This top picture successfully combines creative use of lighting and composition techniques to evoke emotions from viewers. Aly Song's thought-provoking image serves as a reminder that even in seemingly odd circumstances like snake farming, there is beauty to be found amidst our interactions with nature – whether it be through sustenance or traditional medicine practices.
