EDITORS COMMENTS
This print by Philippe Wojazer captures the mesmerizing beauty of a catenary on a train locomotive parked at a train cemetery in Sotteville-Les-Rouen, France. The close-up shot allows us to appreciate the intricate details of this communication and travel mechanism. The brown hues and rusty texture evoke nostalgia for an era when steam trains ruled the railways. The image showcases the creative use of steel industry remnants, as the catenary stands tall against the backdrop of an abandoned marshalling yard. With no people in sight, we are left to imagine the stories that these old trains hold within their metal frames. The photograph's composition draws attention to both the foreground and background elements with its clever depth of field technique. It invites viewers to explore every inch of this weathered train, from its spring objects to its wire connections. As we gaze upon this relic from another time, we can't help but wonder about its past journeys and destinations. This print serves as a reminder that even though these trains may be retired now, they once played vital roles in transporting people and goods across vast distances. Wojazer's skillful capture transports us back in time while simultaneously highlighting how nature has reclaimed what was once man-made. This thought-provoking image leaves ample copy space for our own reflections on progress, decay, and our ever-changing world.
