EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the coal trucks and locomotive preserved as a monument in Ny Alesund, Svalbard, Norway. Nestled amidst the breathtaking scenery of Scandinavia, this remote location exudes an air of isolation and history. The barren mountains serve as a dramatic backdrop for this abandoned urban scene, where disused vehicles stand as remnants of a bygone era. The preservation of these coal trucks and locomotive is not only a testament to the region's rich transportation history but also serves as a reminder of its once-thriving coal industry. Against the backdrop of snow-capped peaks and crystal-clear waters, this non-urban scene captures both the beauty and harshness of Svalbard's landscape. Photographers David Lomax and Robert Harding have expertly captured the essence of this travel destination in vibrant color. The horizontal composition allows viewers to immerse themselves in every detail, from the weathered textures on the vehicles to the contrasting hues that bring life to an otherwise desolate setting. As we gaze upon this photograph, we are transported back in time, envisioning bustling trains traversing through these rugged terrains. It serves as a powerful reminder that even in remote corners of Europe like Svalbard, traces of our industrial past can be found – standing proudly against nature's relentless march forward.
