EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the traditional method of cow manure drying in the sun, showcasing a sustainable fuel source for cooking in rural India. Taken in Haryana, this picturesque countryside scene depicts rows of cow dung patties laid out under the warm rays of the sun. As time passes, these patties gradually transform into dry and solid fuel that will be used to cook meals. The image showcases how communities in India have ingeniously harnessed nature's power to create an alternative and renewable energy source. With green fields stretching as far as the eye can see, it is evident that agriculture plays a vital role in their lives. A lone tree stands tall amidst this landscape, providing shade and adding depth to the composition. The piles of dried cow manure form neat rows, symbolizing orderliness even within a natural setting. This photograph not only highlights an age-old practice but also sheds light on resourcefulness and sustainability. It serves as a reminder that innovative solutions can be found even in seemingly ordinary aspects of life. Captured by Bjorn Svensson from Ronneshytta Sweden, this stunning image transports viewers to rural India where tradition meets practicality through simple yet effective means.
