EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the vast expanse of fences stretching for kilometers near the headwaters of the Yellow River in Madoi county, Golog Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture, Qinghai province, China. The image captures a mesmerizing landscape where nature meets human intervention. The composition is striking with its diagonal lines formed by the fences cutting through an open space filled with lush green grass. The sharp condition and creative use of barbed wire on each pillar emphasize the border between man-made structures and untouched nature. Looking at this view from above, one can appreciate how these fences divide and define agricultural fields against a backdrop of endless skies and fluffy clouds. The perspective offers a unique glimpse into the environment's relationship with human activity. In this photograph, there are no people present; instead, it focuses solely on the weathered pillars and their impact on the surrounding landscape. The out-of-focus elements add depth to the image while keeping our attention firmly fixed on these remarkable fences that seem to stretch endlessly into infinity. Ryan Woo's skillful capture allows us to reflect upon humanity's influence on our natural surroundings. It serves as a reminder of both our ability to shape landscapes and our responsibility towards preserving them for future generations.
