EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a surreal moment in Kathmandu, Nepal. Against the backdrop of a full moon, a spider hangs delicately from its web on a vibrant flower. The image is made even more striking by the fact that it was taken after a total lunar eclipse, which unfortunately remained hidden behind rainfall for the people of Kathmandu. The spider's silhouette against the glowing moon creates an ethereal and mysterious atmosphere. Its intricate web glistens in the moonlight, showcasing nature's creative use of light and darkness. This close-up shot highlights every detail of the spider's hanging position and black-colored body. The composition is truly unique as it combines elements from both the natural world and celestial bodies. The contrast between big and small, alone yet powerful, adds to the overall beauty of this photograph. With no human presence in sight, this picture allows us to appreciate nature's wonders without any distractions. It serves as a reminder of how breathtaking our environment can be when we take time to observe its picturesque moments. Although not visible during this particular eclipse due to weather conditions, this image reminds us of the awe-inspiring phenomena that occur in our universe. It showcases both the delicate balance between sun and moon during an eclipse while also highlighting Earth's incredible biodiversity through its depiction of a tiny spider on a flower petal. Navesh Chitrakar has masterfully captured this extraordinary scene with his keen eye for detail and composition skills.
