EDITORS COMMENTS
In this enchanting photo print, a newly wedded bride radiates love and joy as she poses for a photographer under the magnificent columns of Urban Lights in front of the Los Angeles County Museum of Art. The date is February 16,2014, and the atmosphere is filled with romance and elegance. Urban Light, an awe-inspiring sculpture created by Chris Burden in 2008, serves as the perfect backdrop for wedding and fashion photographers seeking to capture moments of pure bliss. Comprising 202 restored street lamps from the early 20th century, this installation holds a piece of history within its cast iron structures. As you gaze at this image captured by Joe Klamar from Agence France-Presse (AFP), you can't help but be captivated by the timeless beauty exuded by both the bride and her surroundings. These vintage street lamps once illuminated Southern California's streets during simpler times. The uniform grey color that coats these majestic lamps creates a harmonious forest-like setting when arranged in their near grid formation. Standing tall at heights ranging from 20 to 30 feet (6 to 9 meters), they evoke a sense of grandeur that perfectly complements the bride's radiant presence. At dusk, these remarkable lights come alive through solar power, casting an ethereal glow upon all those who visit. This photograph encapsulates not only a moment frozen in time but also symbolizes everlasting love against an urban backdrop steeped in history and artistry.
