EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the sheer strength and power of nature as Mount Mayon volcano erupts anew, creating a distant yet ominous spectacle. Taken from Our Lady of the Gate Parish church in Daraga, Albay province, south of Manila, Philippines on January 25,2018, Romeo Ranoco's lens skillfully portrays the volatile beauty of this natural phenomenon. The image showcases the imposing silhouette of Mount Mayon against a sky filled with volcanic ash and smoke. The lava flows down its slope like fiery veins coursing through its rocky exterior. In stark contrast to this destructive force lies the peaceful cityscape below, seemingly untouched by the chaos unfolding above. Ranoco's creative use of composition highlights both the grandeur and danger associated with such eruptions. The absence of people emphasizes that this is an environment ruled solely by nature's might. As viewers gaze upon this scene, they cannot help but feel a mix of awe and fear at witnessing Mother Earth unleash her fury. The photograph serves as a reminder that amidst our modern advancements and technological achievements, we are still at mercy to these ancient forces. It prompts us to reflect on our place within nature's intricate web and humbles us before its immense power. With no commercial intentions behind it, Romeo Ranoco's snapshot offers us a glimpse into one moment in time when humanity stood witness to both beauty and terror intertwined – forever etched in history through his lens.
