EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Dondi Tawatao, we are transported to the Baseco district in metro Manila, Philippines. As the sun begins its descent below the horizon, a lone fisherman casts his net into the open space before him. The image is filled with contrasts - between light and shadow, serenity and activity. The unrecognizable figure of the angler stands out against the vibrant sky, creating a striking silhouette that reflects on the calm surface of the water. The creative use of composition allows us to appreciate both the vastness of nature and our place within it. As night approaches, there is an atmospheric stillness in the air that adds to the tranquility of this scene. The boat nearby serves as a reminder of man's connection to both land and sea, while also emphasizing our reliance on nature for sustenance. With plenty of copy space surrounding this mesmerizing moment, one cannot help but contemplate their own relationship with their environment. This photograph beautifully captures not only a fleeting moment in time but also invites viewers to reflect upon their own place within nature's grandeur.
