EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Thaier Al-Sudani, a man is seen walking through the ancient city of Babylon near Hilla, Iraq. The image transports us back in time to an era when this majestic city thrived as a center of civilization and culture. Against the backdrop of a clear blue sky, the ruins of buildings stand as silent witnesses to the grandeur that once was. The creative use of composition highlights the architectural marvels that have withstood centuries of history. With no people in sight, we are left alone to contemplate the magnitude and significance of this World Heritage Site. The walls tell stories untold - tales from an ancient Egyptian civilization that flourished here long ago. However, it is impossible not to notice signs of destruction scattered throughout these historic grounds. This serves as a reminder that even great civilizations can fall victim to time's relentless march forward. As a tourist attraction today, visitors come from far and wide to witness firsthand the remnants of an extraordinary past. The image evokes feelings of awe and wonder at our shared human heritage while also urging us to preserve these precious sites for future generations. Thaier Al-Sudani's skillful photography captures both beauty and melancholy in equal measure, inviting viewers into a world where ancient civilizations once thrived against all odds.
