EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print by Willy Kurniawan, the Kahayan river is depicted as smog covers the area due to a devastating forest fire in Palangka Raya, Central Kalimantan province, Indonesia. The image captures the haunting beauty of nature's struggle against pollution and haze. The landscape appears shrouded in a thick fog-like smog, obscuring the once vibrant jungle that surrounds the river. The air hangs heavy with pollutants, creating an eerie atmosphere that hints at the environmental crisis unfolding before our eyes. The meandering path of the river adds to the composition's allure, drawing our attention deeper into this scene of destruction and despair. As we gaze upon this image devoid of human presence, it serves as a stark reminder of how our actions can have far-reaching consequences on our environment. Through his creative use of light and perspective, Kurniawan skillfully captures both the grandeur and fragility of nature. This photograph stands as a testament to the urgent need for conservation efforts and heightened awareness about climate change. As we contemplate this powerful visual narrative, let us reflect on our responsibility towards preserving Earth's natural wonders for future generations. May it serve as a call to action against destructive practices that threaten not only landscapes like Kahayan river but also our very existence on this planet.
