EDITORS COMMENTS
This print by Yuri Kadobnov captures the harsh reality of winter in Russia. Taken on January 8,2017, it showcases a picturesque village called Meshcherskoye, located just outside Moscow. The freezing temperatures that day plummeted to an astonishing -27 degrees Celsius, leaving no doubt about the severity of the cold. The focal point of this image is undoubtedly the icicles hanging from the roof of a house. These delicate formations glisten under the sunlight and create a stunning contrast against the white snow-covered landscape. It's as if nature has transformed this humble dwelling into a magical ice palace. The panoramic view offered by this photograph allows us to fully appreciate both the beauty and brutality of Russian winters. The vastness of the scene emphasizes how climate can shape our environment so dramatically. As we gaze at this frozen tableau, we are reminded of Mother Nature's power and resilience. Despite such extreme conditions, life still goes on in these remote villages – people adapt and find ways to survive amidst adversity. Yuri Kadobnov's skillful composition not only captures a moment frozen in time but also serves as a visual reminder that even in icy landscapes like these, there is always something awe-inspiring waiting to be discovered.
