EDITORS COMMENTS
This print by Bruno Kelly captures the devastating aftermath of deforestation in Rio Pardo, Rondonia state, Brazil. The image showcases a vast expanse of land stripped bare of its lush greenery and transformed into a desolate wasteland. The absence of trees leaves only remnants - tree trunks and branches scattered across the ground like forgotten relics. The play between light and shadow adds an eerie beauty to the scene as the sun rises or sets on this once vibrant forest. The contours of the land are now exposed, showcasing nature's scars caused by human intervention. It serves as a stark reminder of the destructive impact that deforestation has on our planet. In this creative use of photography, Kelly manages to capture both the grand scale and intricate details within this devastated landscape. The absence of any human presence emphasizes how nature is left to bear witness to its own destruction. This powerful image evokes strong emotions while highlighting the urgent need for conservation efforts worldwide. It serves as a wake-up call, urging us all to take responsibility for protecting our precious natural resources before it's too late.
