EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the mesmerizing sight of smoke billowing over the rooftops of downtown Prague. Taken on February 4,2012, as temperatures plummeted to a bone-chilling minus 11 degrees Celsius (12.2 degrees Fahrenheit), this image showcases the city's resilience in the face of harsh winter conditions. The elevated view allows us to appreciate the sprawling urban landscape and its unique architectural charm. The skyline is dominated by towering buildings that blend harmoniously with the historic structures below. Against a backdrop of a vibrant sunset sky, wisps of smoke rise gracefully from chimneys scattered throughout the neighborhood. The absence of people in this shot creates an atmosphere of tranquility and solitude, emphasizing nature's dominance over human activity during such extreme weather conditions. It serves as a reminder that even amidst bustling cities, moments like these can offer serene beauty. David W Cerny's creative use of composition highlights both the grandeur and fragility inherent in urban environments. The open space and copy space allow viewers to immerse themselves fully in this picturesque scene while leaving room for personal interpretation. This photograph is not only visually stunning but also evokes contemplation about our relationship with nature and how it shapes our surroundings. It stands as a testament to David W Cerny's skillful eye for capturing extraordinary moments within ordinary settings.
