EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the powerful force of nature as the Vaal Dam in Gauteng Province, South Africa, overflows during a flood in January 2010. Constructed in 1938, this man-made structure stands as a testament to engineering marvels. Located approximately 77 km south of OR Tambo International Airport, the Vaal Dam boasts an impressive surface area of about 320 square kilometers and reaches depths of up to 47 meters. Situated on the mighty Vaal River, one of South Africa's strongest-flowing rivers, this dam also receives water from other tributaries such as the Wilge River, Klip River, Molspruit, and Grootspruit. With over 800 kilometers of shoreline encompassing its vast expanse, it proudly holds the title as South Africa's second largest dam by area and fourth largest by volume. The image showcases both the beauty and raw power found within this natural phenomenon. The overflowing waters cascade down with immense force against the backdrop of surrounding landscapes. Mitchell Krog skillfully captures every detail through his lens for us to appreciate. As we gaze upon this photograph print from Fine Art Storehouse by Mitchell Krog, we are reminded not only of human achievements but also humbled by nature's ability to shape our world.
