People cast their shadows as they skate on the Wollman Rink in Central Park in the Manhattan borough of New York February 20, 2015. Millions of people awoke to painfully cold weather in the eastern United States on Friday, with temperatures frigid enough in New York City and Washington to break decades-old record lows for February 20.

EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Carlo Allegri, the enchanting scene at Wollman Rink in Central Park comes to life. As people gracefully glide across the ice, their shadows dance alongside them, creating a mesmerizing spectacle against the wintry backdrop. The image beautifully encapsulates a moment frozen in time, showcasing both the joy of skating and the unique play of light and shadow. Taken on February 20,2015, during an exceptionally cold winter day in Manhattan, this photograph also serves as a reminder of nature's power to transform familiar landscapes into something extraordinary. Despite frigid temperatures that broke records for that date, these brave skaters embraced the biting cold with determination and enthusiasm. The contrast between warmth and chill is palpable in this image - while bundled up individuals brave icy winds and freezing temperatures outside their comfort zones on the rink below them lies an atmosphere filled with camaraderie and laughter. It symbolizes resilience amidst adversity; it represents New Yorkers' indomitable spirit even when faced with extreme weather conditions. Carlo Allegri's skillful composition captures not only a fleeting moment but also evokes emotions within viewers. This photograph invites us to appreciate both our own shadows - symbolic of our individual journeys - as well as those around us who share similar paths through life's challenges.
