Belarus-Weather-Feature

A tractor drives past the halo of a winter rainbow on a very cold day in the field outside Minsk on December 2, 2014. The halo is an optical phenomenon produced by ice crystals creating colored or white arcs and spots in the sky, formed in very cold weather when ice crystals called diamond dust are floating in the nearby air.

EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Maxim Malinovsky, we are transported to the frosty fields outside Minsk, Belarus on a bone-chilling day in December 2014. A tractor boldly traverses the wintry landscape, its presence magnified by the ethereal halo of a winter rainbow encircling it. The mesmerizing phenomenon of this halo is created by ice crystals suspended in the air, known as diamond dust. As these tiny crystals reflect and refract sunlight, they produce stunning arcs and spots of colored or white light against the backdrop of an icy sky. Malinovsky's keen eye and impeccable timing have allowed us to witness this rare spectacle firsthand. The juxtaposition of man-made machinery against nature's breathtaking display creates a sense of awe and wonderment. This photograph serves as a reminder that even amidst harsh conditions, beauty can be found in unexpected places. It showcases the resilience and determination of those who work tirelessly in challenging environments like Belarusian farmers braving freezing temperatures to tend their fields. Maxim Malinovsky's skillful composition not only captures a moment frozen in time but also invites us to contemplate our place within nature's grand tapestry. Through his lens, he transports us into a world where reality blends seamlessly with magic—a testament to both his artistic vision and Mother Nature's boundless creativity.
