EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the mystique and allure of the River Acheron, believed to be the legendary River Styx in Greek mythology. Located in Epirus, Greece, this enchanting waterway has long been associated with death and the afterlife. As one gazes upon this mesmerizing landscape, it is easy to imagine souls being ferried across its dark waters. The photographer skillfully portrays the ethereal beauty of this ancient river. The horizontal composition allows for a panoramic view that showcases both the serene surface of the water and its surrounding landscapes. The reflections on its calm surface create an otherworldly atmosphere that transports viewers into a realm where reality blends with myth. Epiros' natural scenery adds to the enchantment of this photograph. Lush greenery frames the riverbanks while distant mountains provide a majestic backdrop. This picturesque setting makes it evident why Epirus is considered a sought-after travel destination for those seeking tranquility amidst nature's wonders. Rolf Richardson's expert use of color enhances every element within this image, from vibrant foliage to subtle shades reflected on the river's mirrored surface. It serves as a reminder that even in death's domain, beauty can still be found. This print invites us to contemplate life's mysteries and ponder what lies beyond our mortal existence. It serves as a visual testament to humanity's enduring fascination with mythology and our eternal quest for understanding what awaits us on "the other side. "
