Alexander Greenhill, Horizon's Glow (PLACES 2023)

The photograph captures the sillohettes of the iconic Australian bushlands at night, where the star-filled sky intrigue the eye. The foreground features a familiar but untamed landscape of the outback, while the horizon is lit up by a gradient of light pollution, creating a warm glow that adds depth to the image both visually and in the commentary it provides as it serves as a poignant reminder of the impact of human activity on our natural world.
