EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Jim Urquhart, an occupier is seen walking along a road at the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge near Burns, Oregon. The image was taken on January 5,2016, during a protest over federal management of public land in the West. Against the backdrop of a cold and snowy landscape, the lone figure stands as a symbol of defiance against what conservatives in the region perceive as an intrusion on individual rights. The photograph beautifully captures the essence of winter with its snow-covered ground and icy natural surroundings. The silhouette of the man against the vast rural landscape creates a striking contrast that highlights his determination to make his voice heard. As he walks along the road, surrounded by untouched nature and under an open sky, one can't help but feel drawn into this powerful moment. This image serves as a reminder of how deeply intertwined people are with their environment and how it shapes their beliefs and actions. It showcases both the beauty and harshness of nature while also reflecting human resilience in challenging circumstances. Jim Urquhart's skillful composition not only documents an important event but also evokes emotions through creative use of lighting and perspective. This photograph truly captures a significant moment in time when individuals stood up for what they believed in amidst freezing temperatures and unforgiving conditions at Malheur National Wildlife Refuge.
