The Lewis Glacier, Mt. Kenya, 1963 (B) Possibly 2014 - 2015

"The Lewis Glacier, Mt. Kenya, 1963 (B)" is a striking photograph by Simon Norfolk taken in 2014 or 2015. The image, captured at twilight, features a winding trail illuminated by headlamps, stretching across the barren landscape of Mount Kenya. The stark contrast between the bright lights of the trail and the dark, rocky terrain creates a sense of isolation and emphasizes the human presence in the vast wilderness. Norfolk's work often explores themes of environmental change and the impact of human activity on the natural world, and this photograph serves as a powerful reminder of the fragility of the planet's ecosystems.
