EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Susana Vera, we witness the simple yet profound beauty of a pensioner taking a leisurely walk through the vibrant streets of Madrid. The image exudes an air of tranquility and serenity as the elderly man strolls along the urban cityscape, his back turned towards us. The photograph cleverly plays with light and shadow, creating a striking silhouette against the backdrop of Madrid's bustling environment. The warm sunlight bathes the scene in a gentle glow, casting long shadows that add depth to the composition. With creative use of negative space and copy space, Vera allows viewers to immerse themselves in this momentary escape from reality. Although we cannot see his face or recognize him personally, there is something universally relatable about this anonymous figure. His age becomes irrelevant as he embodies resilience and determination while navigating life's journey. Dressed in casual attire suitable for a sunny day out, he carries himself with grace and purpose. This image serves as a reminder that regardless of our age or circumstances, we all have our own paths to tread upon. It invites contemplation on how even seemingly mundane activities like going for a walk can hold immense significance within one's personal narrative. Susana Vera has masterfully captured not just an individual but also encapsulated an entire atmosphere – one filled with hopefulness and appreciation for life's simplest pleasures amidst the vibrant energy of Madrid's streetscape.
