EDITORS COMMENTS
This powerful print captures the devastating impact of drought on a soy farm near Chivilcoy, Argentina. The image shows rows upon rows of withered soy plants stretching into the distance, their leaves drooping and discolored. Taken from a low angle, the viewer is confronted with the stark reality of this agricultural crisis. The composition cleverly juxtaposes the desolate ground and wilted crops against a vast expanse of sky, emphasizing the severity of the weather conditions that have plagued this region. The absence of people further accentuates the sense of isolation and despair felt by farmers who rely on these fields for their livelihoods. Despite its bleakness, there is an underlying beauty to this photograph. The creative use of framing highlights nature's resilience as small patches of greenery struggle to survive amidst a sea of destruction. This visual contrast serves as a reminder that even in times of hardship, life persists. Martin Acosta's skillful capture not only documents an environmental catastrophe but also prompts us to reflect on our relationship with nature and how we can better protect it in order to prevent such devastation in future harvests.
