EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Valentyn Ogirenko, coal is meticulously sorted into a towering pile at the warehouse of the Trypillian thermal power plant in Kiev region, Ukraine. The low angle view emphasizes the magnitude of this industrial process, as workers carefully arrange each piece of coal to maximize efficiency and effectiveness. The image showcases the power station's role in the energy industry, with its exterior casting long shadows against a backdrop of clear blue sky. The stark contrast between the dirty black color of coal and the pristine environment surrounding it serves as a reminder of both its importance and impact on our world. With no people present in the frame, attention is solely focused on this vital resource that fuels our daily lives. This creative use of negative space allows viewers to contemplate not only how we harness energy from coal but also its environmental implications. As day turns into night, this photograph symbolizes more than just an industrial scene; it represents power - both literal and metaphorical. It prompts us to consider how we can balance our reliance on fossil fuels with sustainable alternatives for future generations. Valentyn Ogirenko's skillful composition captures a moment frozen in time within Ukraine's energy landscape – one that invites reflection upon our relationship with coal and its place within our evolving world.
