EDITORS COMMENTS
This aerial view, captured by Ed Jones of Agence France-Presse (AFP), showcases the stunning landscape surrounding a town as seen from the window of a Tupolev Tu-204 aircraft. The photograph, taken on November 24,2016, offers a unique perspective on North Korea's aviation scene and its national airline, Air Koryo. As the aircraft approaches Sunan Pyongyang International Airport, we are treated to an enchanting vista that stretches out before us. From this vantage point high above the ground, rows of neatly arranged houses and buildings come into focus against a backdrop of lush greenery. The symmetrical layout hints at meticulous urban planning while offering glimpses into everyday life in this mysterious nation. The image is not only visually striking but also serves as a testament to North Korea's commitment to air travel infrastructure. Despite being shrouded in secrecy and often isolated from global developments, the country maintains its own airline – Air Koryo – which operates various domestic and international flights. Ed Jones' skillful composition captures both the beauty of nature and human habitation coexisting harmoniously below. This photo invites viewers to ponder what lies beyond these picturesque landscapes: bustling markets or tranquil neighborhoods? It sparks curiosity about daily routines within this enigmatic land. Through his lens, Jones presents us with an opportunity to appreciate North Korea's aviation industry while simultaneously reminding us of our shared humanity through glimpses into ordinary lives lived beneath those rooftops.
