EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the remarkable sight of a house perched atop a rock in the middle of the majestic River Drina, near the serene town of Bajina Basta in western Serbia. The image, taken by photographer Marko Djurica on May 22, 2013, showcases an architectural marvel that defies convention and embraces nature's beauty. The house was ingeniously constructed back in 1968 by a group of adventurous young men who recognized the rock as an idyllic spot for their tiny shelter. Today, it stands as a testament to human ingenuity and resilience against nature's forces. Nestled amidst lush greenery and surrounded by flowing waters, this unique dwelling symbolizes man's harmonious coexistence with his environment. Its unconventional location offers breathtaking views and tranquility that few can experience. As we gaze upon this photograph, we are reminded of our innate desire to connect with nature and seek solace within its embrace. It serves as a reminder that even in seemingly impossible circumstances, human determination can triumph over obstacles. This image is not just about architecture or travel; it encapsulates the spirit of adventure and creativity that resides within us all. It invites us to dream beyond boundaries and envision possibilities where others see only limitations. Marko Djurica has masterfully captured this extraordinary scene through his lens, allowing us to appreciate both the grandeur of nature and the audacity of human ambition.
