EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the awe-inspiring sight of "The longest iron ore train in the world between Zouerate and Nouadhibou" in Mauritania, Africa. Stretching as far as the eye can see, this remarkable display showcases the sheer magnitude of this industrial marvel. In a rural setting, amidst breathtaking scenery, rows upon rows of railroad cars laden with iron ore traverse through vast landscapes. The selective focus employed by Michael Runkel/Robert Harding draws attention to the intricate details of each car, highlighting their significance within this transportation network. As one gazes at this horizontal composition, it becomes evident that this train is not just a means of travel but an emblematic symbol of Africa's thriving industry. The vibrant colors captured in the image add an element of dynamism to an otherwise static scene. With no people present in the frame, viewers are left solely with their imagination to ponder over what lies beyond these tracks. This absence emphasizes both the isolation and grandeur that define this remote location. Michael Runkel/Robert Harding's photography encapsulates not only a moment frozen in time but also invites us to contemplate humanity's ability to conquer vast distances for economic progress. It serves as a reminder that even in our modern era, where technology reigns supreme, there are still places where traditional modes of transport continue to shape nations and connect communities.
