EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Thomas Peter, the serene beauty of a snow-covered cemetery in the village of Dersekow, northern Germany is brought to life. The image portrays a scene that seems frozen in time, both literally and metaphorically. The low angle view allows us to appreciate the grandeur of the church building standing tall amidst the wintry landscape. The trees surrounding it are adorned with a thick layer of pristine white snow, creating an ethereal atmosphere. It's as if nature itself has come to pay homage to those laid to rest in this sacred ground. Despite the cold and harsh weather conditions, there is an undeniable sense of peace and tranquility emanating from this place. Unrecognizable figures can be seen scattered throughout the cemetery, their heads bowed in prayer or contemplation. Their presence adds a touch of humanity amidst the vastness of open space. This photograph serves as a reminder that faith transcends seasons and withstands even the harshest elements. It captures not only religious devotion but also showcases how architecture and nature can harmoniously coexist. As we gaze upon this winter wonderland within these historic grounds, we are reminded that even in death, there is still beauty to be found – a testament to both our mortality and resilience against nature's forces.
