EDITORS COMMENTS
This aerial view captures a portion of the closed 405 freeway in Los Angeles, California on July 16,2011. The city had been bracing for what they called "Carmageddon" a highly anticipated shutdown of this major artery that officials had warned about for weeks. However, despite their cautionary messages, morning traffic seemed unaffected by the closure. The image showcases the vast expanse of the deserted highway as it cuts through the urban landscape. The shadow cast by the towering buildings adds an intriguing element to the composition, creating a play between light and dark. In the distance, fog blankets parts of the cityscape, giving it an ethereal quality. The photograph highlights both man-made structures and natural elements coexisting harmoniously within this metropolis. It serves as a reminder of how architecture can shape our environment while nature continues to exert its influence. With no people visible in this shot, one can truly appreciate the scale and magnitude of this transportation infrastructure from above. This perspective offers viewers a unique vantage point to contemplate not only our reliance on highways but also how weather conditions like fog can impact daily life in such an expansive urban setting. Captured by photographer Eric Thayer for Reuters Images, this print invites us to reflect on our relationship with transportation systems and how they intersect with various aspects of our lives – from business and construction to environmental considerations – all against the backdrop of a bustling cityscape bathed in sunlight.
