Two Miles Above the Clouds, 1910
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating print captured by Herbert Ponting. This stunning image is part of his book "In Lotus-Land Japan", which takes us on a visual journey through the mesmerizing landscapes of Asia. In this particular photograph, we are transported to the high altitude region of Honshu, Japan. The dramatic scenery unfolds before our eyes as we witness two men seated on a mountainside overlooking a breathtaking vista. As they sit there, their walking staffs resting beside them, they appear deep in contemplation. The majestic Mount Fuji stands tall in the distance, its snow-capped peak piercing through the clouds that blanket the lower valleys. The sheer magnitude and beauty of this geographical feature leave us in awe. Ponting's composition skillfully captures both the grandeur of nature and human presence within it. The monochrome tones add an element of timelessness to the scene, evoking a sense of nostalgia for an era long gone. This print serves as a reminder that even amidst vast landscapes and towering mountains, mankind can find solace and inspiration. It invites us to reflect upon our place in this world and appreciate the wonders that surround us. As we gaze at "Two Miles Above the Clouds", we are reminded not only of Ponting's artistic brilliance but also his ability to transport us to distant lands through his lens.
