EDITORS COMMENTS
This powerful print captures the aftermath of an armed conflict in Ukraine, specifically on the outskirts of Luhansk. Through a shattered windscreen filled with bullet holes, we see a Ukrainian border post standing tall amidst the destruction and chaos that surrounds it. The once vibrant town now appears unrecognizable, as buildings lay damaged and streets lie empty. In this image, there is an eerie sense of unity between the damaged environment and the religious symbol that stands defiantly against it. A blue sky serves as a backdrop to emphasize both hope and despair simultaneously. The church's cross shape acts as a beacon of faith in this war-torn landscape. The depth of field allows us to appreciate not only the architectural details but also multiple aspects of this scene – from the customs checkpoint to people walking through what was once their daily life. There is an ominous atmosphere suggesting imminent danger or further destruction. Despite these grim circumstances, there is still room for creative use and interpretation within this photograph. It serves as a reminder that even in times of great turmoil, resilience can emerge from unexpected places. This image encapsulates both the devastating impact armed conflicts have on communities while also highlighting humanity's ability to confront adversity head-on with unwavering faith and determination for survival.
