EDITORS COMMENTS
In this powerful print captured by Sukree Sukplang, the chaotic scene in Bangkok on November 24,2012 is vividly portrayed. The image showcases a dramatic clash between Thai police and anti-government protesters, with tear gas being thrown amidst the scuffle. The juxtaposition of the tear gas against the backdrop of a cloudy sky creates a striking contrast that symbolizes the tension and unrest prevalent during this demonstration. The damaged surroundings and ash-filled air serve as poignant reminders of the environmental issues faced by both protestors and law enforcement alike. Amidst this chaos, an unrecognizable man can be seen falling down over clouds of smoke, representing not only physical confrontation but also personal struggles faced by individuals caught up in such events. This photograph captures a moment where faith in government is challenged as real people confront authority for change. It serves as one of the top pictures from that day's news cycle due to its creative composition and use of smoke fire to create an impactful visual narrative. Through Sukplang's lens, we are given a glimpse into a significant moment in Thai history - one that highlights political tensions, civil unrest, and societal divisions. This image stands as a testament to both the power of photography to capture raw emotions and its ability to shed light on critical social issues around us.
