EDITORS COMMENTS
This print by Timm Ziegenthaler showcases a haunting scene at Letany Airfield in the Czech Republic. A row of derelict MiG aircraft, once part of the Czech Air Force, now stand abandoned and forgotten. The image captures the eerie beauty of these decaying jetfighters, their vibrant colors fading under the relentless passage of time. With no people in sight, this photograph emphasizes the solitude and stillness that surrounds these retired military machines. Stationary and static, they remain parked in perfect formation as if frozen in time. Each fighter plane tells its own story, bearing witness to years of service and countless missions flown. The Letnany airfield serves as a melancholic backdrop for this composition. Its old hangars echo with memories from an era when these jets roared through the skies defending their nation's airspace. Now left to decay, they serve as a poignant reminder of past glory. This color image perfectly captures every detail - from the weathered exteriors to intricate design elements unique to each aircraft model. It offers viewers an opportunity to appreciate not only the artistry behind these engineering marvels but also reflect on their historical significance within Czechoslovak armed forces and later the Czech Air Force. Timm Ziegenthaler's photography skillfully conveys both nostalgia and admiration for these abandoned relics of aviation history while reminding us that even mighty machines are subject to inevitable obsolescence over time.
