EDITORS COMMENTS
In this powerful image captured by Umit Bektas, the shadow of a protester holding a flag is cast onto the road during a May Day rally in Ankara, Turkey. The silhouette stands as a symbol of resilience and determination amidst political unrest and social struggle. The photograph captures the essence of unity and solidarity that often characterizes such rallies. The protester's outstretched arm proudly holds up the flag, representing their unwavering commitment to their cause. The shadowy figure seems to merge with the pavement, emphasizing how these individuals are deeply rooted within their society, fighting for justice and change. The play between light and dark in this image adds depth and intensity to its composition. As sunlight filters through surrounding buildings, it casts long shadows on the road—a metaphorical reminder that even in challenging times, hope can still shine through. The contrast between light and shadow also serves as a visual representation of conflicting ideologies present at such demonstrations. This photograph encapsulates both the individuality of each protester—represented by their distinct shadow—and their collective strength when united under one common purpose. It speaks volumes about the power of peaceful assembly to bring attention to important issues while highlighting an ongoing struggle for justice in modern-day Turkey. Umit Bektas' skillful lens has immortalized this fleeting moment from a May Day rally—an enduring testament to those who continue fighting for change despite facing obstacles along their path towards progress.
