EDITORS COMMENTS
This print by Willy Kurniawan showcases the aftermath of devastating fires near Banjarmasin in South Kalimantan province, Indonesia. The image captures a vast expanse of burnt land, where once lush forests stood proud. The scorched earth is covered in layers of ash and debris, creating an eerie yet strangely beautiful landscape. The creative use of light and perspective highlights the destruction caused by deforestation and emphasizes the urgent need to protect our environment. With no people present, the photograph allows us to reflect on the impact human activities have on nature. The burnt trees stand as solemn reminders of what was lost, while the surrounding air hangs heavy with a sense of sorrow. This powerful visual narrative serves as a call to action against practices that harm our planet's delicate balance. Through this image, Kurniawan invites viewers to contemplate how weather patterns can be altered due to such devastation and how ecosystems are forever changed when we destroy natural habitats. It serves as a stark reminder that we must prioritize sustainable practices and work towards preserving our precious natural resources for future generations. In this thought-provoking photograph, Kurniawan captures both the beauty and tragedy inherent in nature's fragile existence.
