22nd Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest People
Crowned by the Sky
This black-and-white photograph captures a striking moment where a cloud seems to rest atop the subject’s head, like a crown. The cloud’s shape creates a whimsical, almost surreal effect, as if nature itself has crowned the person in this fleeting moment. The monochrome tones highlight the contrast between the soft texture of the cloud and the solid presence of the person, adding depth and drama to the scene. The image evokes a sense of imagination, as if the boundaries between reality and fantasy have blurred.
