EDITORS COMMENTS
In this powerful image captured by Denis Balibouse, we witness a group of individuals participating in a solemn mourning ceremony to raise awareness about the devastating effects of climate change. The photograph was taken in Mels, Switzerland, on September 22,2019. The scene unfolds against the backdrop of the disappearing Pizol glacier, serving as a stark reminder of our planet's fragile state. As participants gather in this cold and open space surrounded by snow-covered mountains, they unite under a common cause – to shed light on the urgent need for action against climate change. The creative use of nature's elements is evident in this photo print. The pristine white color symbolizes purity and innocence while contrasting with the frozen landscape that represents both beauty and vulnerability. The air feels crisp as it fills their lungs during this outdoor event held amidst the breathtaking alpine scenery. Although no people are visible in this particular frame, their presence can be felt through their collective grief and determination. This image serves as a call to action for all who view it – urging us to recognize our responsibility towards preserving our environment before more natural wonders like glaciers vanish forever. Denis Balibouse captures not only an extraordinary moment but also highlights the significance of coming together to protect our planet from further harm caused by climate change.
