EDITORS COMMENTS
In the heart of Siberia, a breathtaking scene unfolds as skiers and snowboarders illuminate the night sky during an annual festival in Zheleznogorsk. Against the backdrop of a frozen mountain slope, hundreds of participants descend with grace and skill, their paths traced by flickering torches and flashlights. Captured with a long exposure technique on March 3,2018, this mesmerizing photograph by Ilya Naymushin captures the essence of celebration in extreme winter sports. The unrecognizable figures become silhouettes against the snowy landscape as they navigate through the cold air with unparalleled agility. The creative use of lighting transforms them into ethereal beings, leaving trails that resemble lightning bolts across the picture frame. Each individual becomes part of a larger spectacle that showcases both their love for adventure and their dedication to embracing nature's wintry embrace. This picturesque moment not only highlights the beauty of winter but also serves as a reminder of our harmonious coexistence with our environment. As these real people come together to celebrate their shared passion for skiing and snowboarding, they demonstrate how humans can thrive even in challenging weather conditions. With its multiple layers - from the covered slopes to the starry night above - this image invites us to immerse ourselves in an enchanting world where adrenaline meets tranquility. It is a testament to human resilience and our ability to find joy amidst freezing temperatures.
