EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the serene beauty of the Rotorua district in the North Island of New Zealand. In this stunning image, a climber takes a moment to rest on a rocky prominence along the slopes of Mount Ruapehu. With his gaze fixed across the valley, he marvels at the majestic sight of another volcano, Mount Nguauruhoe, erupting in all its glory. Taken around 1948 from "Newnes Pictorial Knowledge Volume 3", this photograph showcases not only the breathtaking landscape but also highlights man's adventurous spirit and love for exploration. The monochrome tones add depth and timelessness to this scene, transporting us back to an era when mountaineering was both an art form and an adrenaline-fueled pursuit. The Rotorua district is known for its geographical features and natural wonders, making it a paradise for outdoor enthusiasts. This image perfectly encapsulates that sense of adventure as we witness one lone climber immersing himself in nature's grandeur. As we admire this picture today, let us reflect on our own connection with nature and appreciate those who have come before us to explore these awe-inspiring landscapes. It serves as a reminder that even amidst chaos or eruption – like Mount Nguauruhoe – there is always tranquility to be found if we take a moment to pause and embrace it.
