EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Eloy Alonso, two young boys stand in awe as they witness the sheer strength and power of nature. The setting is the picturesque port town of Viavelez in Spain, where waves crash relentlessly against a towering lighthouse. It is January 18,2018, and these brave spectators find themselves immersed in a scene that showcases both the beauty and danger of the sea. The image portrays an ominous atmosphere with dark storm clouds looming overhead. The silhouettes of the boys are highlighted against the backdrop of crashing waves and an expansive sky. As they gaze out towards the rough sea, their faces filled with wonderment and respect for nature's force become apparent. The composition cleverly uses depth of field to blur out some elements while keeping others sharply focused. This technique draws attention to the main subjects - two unrecognizable boys who symbolize humanity's vulnerability when faced with such immense natural phenomena. Alonso's photograph serves as a reminder that despite our domestication of animals and our attempts to control our environment, we are still mere spectators when confronted by Mother Nature's mightiest displays. The collision between wave water and lighthouse exemplifies her raw power, leaving viewers captivated by its intensity. This remarkable image invites contemplation on man's place within nature; it reminds us that even amidst modernity, there are forces beyond our control that demand reverence and humility.
