EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the breathtaking view of Hasankeyf, a town in southeastern Turkey that is on the verge of being submerged by the Ilisu Dam. Taken on October 3,2019, this image showcases the stark contrast between the old and new Hasankeyf. In the foreground, we see remnants of ancient architecture and ruins nestled along the riverbank, serving as a poignant reminder of centuries-old history. The dilapidated buildings stand as silent witnesses to a village soon to be lost beneath water. In stark juxtaposition against this historical backdrop lies the new Hasankeyf in the background. Modern structures and an open space bridge symbolize progress and development but also highlight nature's imminent conquest over human intervention. The aerial perspective offers us an expansive view from above, allowing us to appreciate both natural beauty and man-made constructs within this dynamic landscape. The surrounding mountains provide a majestic frame for this scene while trees dotting the field add touches of greenery amidst arid surroundings. As we gaze at this photograph, we are reminded not only of humanity's ability to shape its environment but also our responsibility towards preserving cultural heritage and safeguarding nature's wonders. This image serves as a powerful testament to how progress can come at great cost – urging us all to reflect upon our impact on these delicate ecosystems before they become mere memories captured through lenses like Sertac Kayar's lens.
