20th Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Travel
The Gazelle and the Giant
The contrast and conflict of human development and natural beauty is evident in this photograph, requiring many visits to the location to finally find and document the conditions visualized here, as a group of gazelle graze peacefully in the soft rolling warm dunes, while the busy and loud cityscape with its sharp shapes and cold colors rise in the background.
