EDITORS COMMENTS
In this hauntingly captivating photograph captured by Alex Skelly, we are confronted with the eerie remnants of a basketball court that once thrived with life and energy. The image transports us to the heart of the Chernobyl nuclear disaster in Ukraine, where time seems to have stood still. The decaying gymnasium, now reduced to ruins, serves as a poignant reminder of the devastating consequences left behind by one of history's worst nuclear accidents. Once bustling with families and workers from the nearby power plant, it now stands as a desolate symbol of abandonment and decay. Nature has begun its relentless reclamation process here; vines creep through broken windows while sunlight filters through cracks in the ceiling. The faded lines on what remains of the basketball court evoke memories of countless games played and dreams pursued within these walls. Skelly's composition skillfully captures both beauty and tragedy simultaneously. Through his lens, he invites us to reflect upon our own mortality and ponder how quickly our achievements can crumble before nature's unstoppable force. This photograph is not merely an artistic portrayal but also serves as a powerful testament to human resilience amidst adversity. It reminds us that even in moments when hope appears lost, there is always potential for rebirth and renewal – just like nature reclaiming this forgotten space at Chernobyl.
