EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Akhtar Soomro, a man is seen walking alone in a building during a power outage in Karachi, Pakistan. The image portrays the city's urban landscape engulfed in darkness, with only the faintest hint of light and shadow illuminating the scene. The black color dominates the frame, creating an atmosphere of mystery and fear. The man stands as an unrecognizable silhouette against the backdrop of abandoned surroundings, symbolizing resilience amidst adversity. His solitary figure represents both strength and vulnerability as he navigates through the empty interior with creative use of available light sources. Despite being surrounded by darkness, there is a shiny majestic quality to this photograph that evokes a sense of hope and determination. It serves as a reminder that even in times of blackout or uncertainty, individuals can find their way forward. This image captures not only one person's journey but also reflects on larger themes such as nature's impact on our daily lives and how we adapt to challenging circumstances. With its powerful composition and striking contrast between light and shadow, this photograph invites viewers to contemplate their own experiences with power outages or moments when they have felt alone in unfamiliar environments.
