EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Akhtar Soomro, a pigeon gracefully glides past a motionless clock on the Lakshmi Building in Karachi. The building itself stands as a testament to the British Raj era, exuding an air of historical significance and architectural grandeur. Against the backdrop of a serene blue sky, the low angle view accentuates both the imposing tower and the bird's flight path. The juxtaposition between nature and man-made structures is beautifully portrayed here. As time appears to stand still with the halted clock, life continues its course with this elegant creature soaring through the urban cityscape. The creative use of perspective allows us to appreciate not only the intricate details of both avian and edifice but also their harmonious coexistence within their shared environment. This image serves as a reminder that amidst our busy lives dictated by time, there are moments when we can pause and observe such fleeting scenes of beauty. It invites contemplation on our own place in history and how we navigate through it. With no human presence visible, one can almost feel transported into another dimension where only nature's creations interact with timeless architecture. Akhtar Soomro's skillful composition captures more than just an ordinary scene; it encapsulates emotions evoked by flight, weather conditions, and even nostalgia for days gone by. This photograph encourages viewers to reflect upon their surroundings while appreciating simple yet extraordinary encounters like this graceful pigeon crossing paths with an immobile clock tower in Karachi's ever-evolving landscape.
