EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Bogdan Cristel during the third stage of the 96th Tour de France cycling race, we witness a mesmerizing play of light and shadows. The image showcases the silhouettes of riders as their elongated shadows are cast upon the road beneath them. The scene takes place between Marseille and La Grande-Motte on July 6,2009, adding historical significance to this moment frozen in time. As these skilled athletes pedal through the French countryside, their determined figures become mere outlines against a backdrop of asphalt. The interplay between light and shadow creates a sense of mystery and intrigue within the photograph. It symbolizes not only the physical challenges faced by these cyclists but also serves as a metaphor for life's journey itself – where each individual leaves behind an imprint that fades away with time. Cristel's composition skillfully captures both movement and stillness simultaneously. The dynamic energy exuded by these riders is juxtaposed against the stationary nature of their shadows etched onto the road surface. This remarkable image invites viewers to reflect upon themes such as perseverance, teamwork, and dedication while appreciating the beauty found in fleeting moments. It serves as a testament to human strength and resilience amidst adversity – qualities embodied by those who participate in one of sport's most grueling competitions: The Tour de France.
