EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Lisi Niesner, the beauty of autumn is showcased at the Central Cemetery (Zentralfriedhof) in Vienna. The image transports us to October 29,2010, when vibrant and warm-colored leaves adorned the cemetery grounds. As we gaze upon this scene, we are reminded of nature's ability to transform even somber places into breathtaking landscapes. The Central Cemetery holds a significant place in Viennese history and culture. Established in 1874, it stands as the largest cemetery in Vienna and is located in the Simmering district. However, beyond its purpose as a final resting place for many souls, it also serves as an environmental sanctuary amidst urban surroundings. The photograph captures a moment where sunlight filters through the canopy of trees, illuminating the ground with golden hues. The fallen leaves create a carpet of reds, oranges, yellows that contrast beautifully against the green grass beneath them. This juxtaposition symbolizes both life and death coexisting harmoniously within these sacred grounds. Lisi Niesner's skillful composition invites viewers to appreciate not only nature's seasonal transformation but also reflect on our own mortality. It reminds us that even amid grief and loss represented by cemeteries like Zentralfriedhof – there is still immense beauty to be found if we take a moment to observe closely. This Reuters Images' print encapsulates both serenity and melancholy while celebrating autumn's enchantment within an unexpected setting—a testament
