EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Omar Sanadiki, the sun rises over Aleppo's historic citadel while smoke billows in the distance. Taken from a government-controlled area of Aleppo, Syria on December 6,2016, the image showcases the aftermath of intense armed conflict that has ravaged this urban city. The damaged exterior of buildings and debris scattered across the landscape serve as haunting reminders of the violence and destruction that once plagued these streets. The creative use of aerial view allows us to witness firsthand the devastating impact battle has had on architecture and infrastructure. As sun rays pierce through dark clouds, they cast an eerie glow upon the ruins below. The juxtaposition between nature's beauty and man-made chaos is both striking and unsettling. This photograph captures a moment frozen in time - a snapshot of fear, danger, and uncertainty. From above, we are granted a unique perspective into this war-torn cityscape. It serves as a stark reminder of humanity's capacity for destruction but also our resilience to rebuild amidst adversity. Omar Sanadiki's powerful imagery not only documents history but also evokes emotions within viewers who bear witness to its chilling narrative.
