EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a mesmerizing celestial conjunction against the backdrop of an old farm water pump windmill in Alberta, Canada. Taken on March 12,2012, the image showcases the stunning alignment of Venus and Jupiter behind this rustic structure located on Glenmore Trail east of Langdon. The ethereal glow emanating from car headlights illuminates the scene, while thin clouds infused with twilight and light pollution create a vibrant tapestry of colors across the sky. In addition to Venus and Jupiter, one can also spot Pleiades and Hyades constellations twinkling above. This vertical composition beautifully juxtaposes nature's wonders with human-made machinery. The windmill stands tall as a symbol of traditional energy generation methods amidst an era dominated by alternative sources. Its weathered appearance adds character to this rural setting, emphasizing its connection to both past generations and renewable energy efforts. Alan Dyer's expert photography skillfully captures this unique moment where ancient meets modernity. With no people present in the frame, viewers are invited to immerse themselves in the vastness of space and contemplate humanity's quest for efficiency, electricity, and sustainable practices. In summary, this color image encapsulates not only a breathtaking nightscape but also serves as a reminder that progress can coexist harmoniously with our natural surroundings.
