EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the mesmerizing beauty of the Frozen Harbour of Khoujir, located on Olkhon island in Lake Baikal, Siberia. As winter blankets the region with a thick layer of snow and ice, this UNESCO World Heritage Site transforms into a breathtaking frozen landscape. The image showcases the tranquility and stillness that envelops the harbor during this time of year. A lone boat is moored to a wooden pier, its vibrant colors contrasting against the stark white surroundings. The boat stands as a reminder of transportation challenges faced by locals due to extreme terrain and cold temperatures. With no signs of human presence, it seems as if time has stood still in this remote corner of Russia's Eurasia. The frozen lake stretches out towards distant hills, creating an ethereal vista that captivates all who lay eyes upon it. Photographer Bruno Morandi skillfully captures every detail in this horizontal composition. His use of color highlights the contrast between nature's icy grip and man-made elements like boats and piers. This photograph serves as an invitation for travelers seeking unique destinations off-the-beaten-path - a travel destination where one can truly disconnect from urban life and immerse themselves in untouched natural beauty. As we gaze at this remarkable scene through Robert Harding's lens, we are reminded once again why Lake Baikal holds such significance as one of UNESCO's World Heritage Sites - preserving not only natural wonders but also cultural heritage for generations to come.
