EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Darrin Zammit Lupi, a woman walks alone through the Pieta Military Cemetery in Malta. The image commemorates the 103rd anniversary of the ANZAC landings at Gallipoli, where Australian and New Zealand soldiers fought bravely during World War I. As she leaves a service held to honor these fallen heroes, the woman carries an umbrella to shield herself from the elements. The exterior of the cemetery is bathed in warm sunlight, casting long shadows that add depth and atmosphere to the scene. Against a serene blue sky, a single tree stands tall as if guarding over rows of tombstones. The creative use of composition frames the shot with religious symbolism; a cross-shaped silhouette can be seen in both the shadow cast by the tree and on one of the graves. This powerful image captures not only faith but also protection against unpredictable weather conditions. It symbolizes how umbrellas provide shelter not just from raindrops but also from life's storms. The unrecognizable figure walking towards us represents all those who visit cemeteries to pay their respects and find solace amidst memories. Lupi's photograph beautifully encapsulates tradition, serenity, and reverence for those who made sacrifices for their countries. It serves as a poignant reminder that even after more than a century has passed since these historic events unfolded, their impact remains deeply felt today.
