EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Ognen Teofilovski, we witness the enchanting celebration of the summer solstice at the Kokino megalithic observatory near the city of Kumanovo, Macedonia. The low angle view allows us to appreciate the grandeur of this ancient site as people gather in awe-inspiring silhouette against a backdrop of an expansive night sky. As darkness envelops the surroundings, unrecognizable figures come together to honor this celestial event. Bathed in ethereal sun rays that pierce through clouds and touch their bodies, these individuals celebrate nature's rhythm and embrace its profound connection with our lives. The creative use of shadows adds depth and mystery to this remarkable scene. The composition beautifully captures both human presence and natural elements harmoniously coexisting. With ample copy space surrounding them, it invites contemplation on our place within such vastness. This image serves as a reminder of how we are but small fragments in an ever-changing environment shaped by weather patterns and celestial phenomena. Teofilovski's photograph transports us into a moment where time seems suspended—a moment when people from diverse backgrounds unite under one common sky to pay homage to the power and beauty of summertime. It is a visual testament to humanity's innate desire for connection with nature and each other during significant moments like solstices.
