EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the breathtaking beauty of the Chukotka Peninsula in Russia. The snow-covered mountains create a mesmerizing landscape that stretches as far as the eye can see. Located on the easternmost point of Russia, this remote region is bordered by the desolate Bering Strait, with Alaska's Seward Peninsula just 85km away. The Chukotka Peninsula, also known as the Chokchi Peninsula, is characterized by its freezing temperatures and harsh climate. This geographical location makes it one of the coldest regions in Siberia. The horizontal expanse of mountains and hills covered in a thick blanket of snow and ice creates an ethereal atmosphere. Despite its isolation and extreme conditions, this eastern region holds great significance both geographically and historically. As of 2012, it remains a closed military area due to its strategic position near international borders. In this photograph captured by Science Photo Library, nature's raw power is beautifully depicted through the vastness and grandeur of these snow-capped peaks. It serves as a reminder of our planet's diverse landscapes and highlights how even in such remote areas, untouched beauty can be found.
