EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the enchanting night view of the historic Anshun Bridge in Chengdu, China. Standing proudly over the Jin River, this iconic bridge has a rich history that dates back to 1746 when it was first constructed by Lingan Hongdui. However, tragedy struck in 1947 when a devastating flood swept through Chengdu and destroyed the original bridge. Undeterred by adversity, the resilient people of Chengdu rebuilt their beloved landmark in 2003 as a testament to their unwavering spirit. This modern incarnation of the Anshun Bridge stands tall and majestic, symbolizing resilience and progress. In this stunning image taken on July 29th, 2018, we are treated to an awe-inspiring sight. The illuminated bridge casts its reflection upon the tranquil waters below while vibrant city lights twinkle in harmony with the starry night sky. The juxtaposition between tradition and modernity is beautifully captured here - a testament to how ancient structures can seamlessly coexist with contemporary urban landscapes. Photographer shan. shihan skillfully captures not only the physical beauty of this architectural marvel but also evokes a sense of wonder and admiration for its historical significance. This print serves as a visual reminder that even after facing destruction, human determination can triumphantly rebuild what was lost and create something even more extraordinary.
