EDITORS COMMENTS
In this powerful photo captured by Carlos Jasso, a man stands among a group of others as they observe a minute of silence to commemorate the four-month anniversary of the devastating September 19 earthquake in Mexico City. The image portrays unity and solidarity as these individuals come together to remember the lives lost and show support for those affected by the tragedy. The man's gesture is unrecognizable, yet it speaks volumes about his emotions during this moment of reflection. Silhouetted against the night sky, he symbolizes strength and resilience amidst darkness. The creative use of light and shadow adds depth to the composition, emphasizing both individuality and collective grief. The exterior setting further enhances the atmosphere, with an out-of-focus background hinting at an environment still recovering from destruction. This photograph captures not only people but also their surroundings – an air thick with somberness that lingers even months after disaster struck. Jasso's skillful manipulation of depth of field draws attention to this anonymous figure while maintaining focus on the larger group. It reminds us that although each person may be just one silhouette in a sea of shadows, together they form a united front against adversity. This print serves as a poignant reminder that even in times of darkness, there is always hope shining through – represented here by these individuals standing strong under dimly lit skies.
