EDITORS COMMENTS
In this powerful image captured by Alkis Konstantinidis, a man proudly holds up the Turkish flag against the backdrop of Istanbul's mesmerizing skyline. Taken on July 16,2016, during a time of great significance for Turkey, this photograph encapsulates the spirit and resilience of its people. The low angle view adds depth to the composition as it frames the scene with an expansive sky overhead. The moon shines brightly in the distance, symbolizing hope and unity. Although we cannot see his face, his unrecognizable figure becomes a representation of every citizen who stands together in solidarity. The vibrant red color of the national flag contrasts beautifully against the blue sky, evoking a sense of patriotism and pride. With raised hands holding up their emblematic symbol high in the air, these individuals demonstrate their unwavering support for their country. Alkis Konstantinidis skillfully captures not only a moment frozen in time but also conveys an emotional connection between people and nation through creative use of body parts. This photograph serves as a reminder that even amidst challenging times, there is strength within communities when they come together under one banner.
