EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Radu Sigheti, vehicles cautiously navigate through a thick blanket of fog on a frosty road near Dragos Voda village. The image, taken 120 km (74 miles) east of Bucharest on February 4,2012, perfectly encapsulates the harsh conditions that Eastern Europe and Germany experienced during an unprecedented cold snap. As the freezing temperatures gripped the region, at least 139 lives were tragically lost. This sudden change in weather disrupted what had previously been an unusually mild European winter. The severity of the blizzards was evident as more than 56 trains were canceled in Romania alone. The photograph showcases nature's power and beauty as it shrouds everything in sight with its ethereal mist. With no people visible in the frame, one can truly appreciate the vastness of this open space enveloped by fog. The dimly lit sky adds to the mysterious ambiance while highlighting how light struggles to penetrate through this dense natural phenomenon. Amidst this wintry scene stands a solitary tree and nonagricultural field—a testament to resilience against nature's forces. Meanwhile, vehicles forge ahead bravely along the treacherous road illuminated only by their headlights. Radu Sigheti masterfully captures both tranquility and danger within a single frame—reminding us of our vulnerability when faced with Mother Nature's unpredictable temperament.
