EDITORS COMMENTS
This print by John Davis showcases the remnants of a defunct Air Force Station radar tower at Mount Lemmon Observatory near Tucson, Arizona. Standing tall against the clear night sky, this tower serves as a powerful reminder of the Cold War era and its technological advancements. The image captures the essence of a cold winter's night, with snow-covered surroundings and frigid temperatures. As darkness falls, the galactic wonders come to life above - an awe-inspiring display of stars and the majestic Milky Way stretching across the universe. The abandoned radar tower stands as a testament to human ingenuity and our quest for knowledge about space. Its radome structure symbolizes both past surveillance efforts and our ongoing fascination with astronomy. Set against a backdrop of purple hues, this horizontal photograph beautifully portrays not only the architectural beauty of this facility but also its historical significance. It invites viewers to reflect on how technology has shaped our world while reminding us that nature's mysteries continue to unfold in outer space. With no people present in this color image, it allows us to focus solely on these man-made structures juxtaposed against Mother Nature's grandeur. This stunning photography captures history frozen in time at Mount Lemmon Observatory – an extraordinary blend of science, architecture, and natural beauty all in one frame.
