EDITORS COMMENTS
This print by Jeff Dai transports us to the enchanting streets of China, where the ancient culture intertwines with modern urban landscapes. Through the narrow alleyway, a celestial spectacle unfolds as the Big Dipper gracefully adorns the night sky. Known in China as the Seven Stars of the Northern Dipper, this asterism holds great significance beyond its navigational purpose. In traditional Chinese beliefs, this celestial formation not only guided wanderers but also served as a compass for determining seasons. As we gaze at this mesmerizing image, we are reminded of how deeply intertwined nature and human existence were in ancient times. The absence of people in this photograph allows us to focus solely on two worlds colliding - that of architecture and astronomy. The rustic buildings stand tall against a backdrop painted with stars, creating an intriguing contrast between man-made structures and cosmic wonders. Through low angle view photography, Dai skillfully captures both architectural details and celestial beauty in one frame. This vertical composition emphasizes the height and narrowness of the street while drawing our eyes upwards towards Ursa Major's prominent constellation. As we contemplate this stunning visual narrative, it serves as a reminder that even amidst bustling city life, there is always room for wonderment and connection with something greater than ourselves – be it through cultural heritage or gazing up at distant stars.
