EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Kai Pfaffenbach, the streetlamps outside a restaurant on the peak of the Feldberg mountain are transformed into ethereal sculptures as they stand covered in a thick layer of snow and ice. The close-up shot reveals intricate details of each lamp, showcasing the power of nature's wintry embrace. The cold winter wind has shaped delicate icicles that hang from every corner, adding to the serene beauty of this urban city scene. The soft illumination from these frozen lamps creates a mesmerizing atmosphere against the backdrop of a white wonderland. This image serves as a reminder of both the beauty and unpredictability found in nature. It highlights how even man-made objects can become part of an awe-inspiring natural phenomenon. As we gaze upon this picturesque moment, it is hard not to marvel at the depth of field created by layers upon layers of frosty elements. With its yellow glow contrasting against the icy surroundings, this photograph captures both tranquility and dynamism. It symbolizes not only winter but also Christmas cheer while subtly alluding to global warming and its impact on our seasons. Pfaffenbach's lens has masterfully portrayed how something as simple as streetlamps can be transformed into objects that evoke emotions and inspire contemplation about our relationship with nature.
