EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Aly Song, an ethnic minority delegate makes a striking entrance for the opening session of the National People's Congress (NPC) at the prestigious Great Hall of the People in Beijing, China. The image was taken on March 5,2016. The close-up shot focuses on the delegate's beaded headgear and traditional clothes, showcasing their rich cultural heritage. Although their face remains unrecognizable due to clever use of shadows and contrast, it adds an air of mystery to the composition. What sets this photograph apart is its creative use of body parts as well as nature and environment elements. The silhouette against a backdrop of Chinese architecture creates an oddly beautiful juxtaposition between tradition and modernity. As we gaze upon this powerful image, we can't help but marvel at how one individual can symbolize so much diversity within a nation. It serves as a reminder that amidst political proceedings like NPC's opening ceremony, there are individuals who bring forth their unique identities and perspectives. Aly Song has masterfully captured not only a moment frozen in time but also emotions evoked by this extraordinary scene. This photograph stands as a testament to both human resilience and cultural pride within China's diverse society.
