EDITORS COMMENTS
This print by Shailesh Andrade captures the haunting reality of air pollution in Mumbai. The image showcases a cityscape enveloped in a dense shroud of smog, as buildings and skyscrapers disappear into the hazy atmosphere. The aerial view offers a unique perspective, emphasizing the magnitude of this environmental issue. The photograph portrays an eerie scene where even monumental structures seem dwarfed by the overwhelming presence of pollution. Amidst this foggy backdrop, residential developments and apartment complexes stand as silent witnesses to the consequences of climate change on urban life. The creative use of light and shadow adds depth to the composition, enhancing its visual impact. A solitary boat glides through murky waters below, symbolizing both hope for cleaner surroundings and the urgent need for action against air pollution. With no people present, nature seems to have taken a backseat in this picturesque setting. Instead, it is replaced by an ominous fog that serves as a reminder of how human activities can disrupt our environment. This thought-provoking image serves as a wake-up call about the detrimental effects of air pollution on our cities and underscores the importance of finding sustainable solutions for future generations.
