EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the powerful and majestic Mount Unzen volcano in Japan. The image, taken on January 6,2010, showcases the dormant volcano which was last active during the years 1990-1995. In the foreground of the photograph lies Oshigadani gorge, where stepped check dams have been strategically placed to mitigate the risk of lahar (mudflow) hazards. The landscape is a testament to both the danger and beauty that nature possesses. The mountain range stretches across the horizon, its volcanic cones standing tall and commanding attention. With its conical shape and imposing summit, Mount Unzen exudes an undeniable power that reminds us of Earth's geological forces. Richard Roscoe's skillful photography brings out every detail in this horizontal color image. The absence of people allows us to fully appreciate nature's grandeur without any distractions. Located in Nagasaki Prefecture on Kyushu Island, this stratovolcano boasts steep slopes and dramatic inclines adorned with rugged rock formations. As we gaze upon this breathtaking scene, we are reminded of how small we are compared to Mother Nature's might. This photo serves as a reminder of both our vulnerability and resilience in the face of natural wonders like Mount Unzen - a true testament to Earth science at its finest.
