Gibraltar Partially Covered by Cloud

A cloud partially covers the tip of the Rock of the British territory of Gibraltar at sunrise from La Atunara port before Spanish fishermen sail in their fishing boats with their relatives to take part in a protest at an area of the sea where an artificial reef was built by Gibraltar using concrete blocks, in Algeciras bay, La Linea de la Concepcion in southern Spain August 18, 2013. For just over an hour some 30 fishing boats circled where 70 3-tonne concrete blocks were dropped in July to form a reef that Spain said was not legal and prompted the government to ramp up border checks with the British overseas territory.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the ethereal beauty of Gibraltar, as a cloud delicately veils the tip of its iconic Rock. Taken at sunrise from La Atunara port in southern Spain, the image showcases the mesmerizing contrast between nature and man-made structures. The photograph tells a deeper story beyond its stunning visual appeal. It depicts Spanish fishermen preparing to set sail with their relatives for a protest against an artificial reef constructed by Gibraltar using concrete blocks. The reef, consisting of 70 three-tonne blocks dropped into Algeciras bay in July, sparked political controversy and heightened tensions between Spain and the British overseas territory. In this moment frozen in time, around 30 fishing boats encircle the area where the disputed reef lies. The composition symbolizes unity and determination as these individuals come together to voice their concerns over what they perceive as an illegal act. Photographer Jon Nazca skillfully captures both the serenity of nature's elements and the underlying tension caused by political disputes. This thought-provoking image serves as a reminder that even amidst breathtaking landscapes, conflicts can arise that challenge our perceptions of borders and territories.
