EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the urban landscape of Colombo, Sri Lanka in a unique and creative way. The glass panels of a building act as mirrors, reflecting the bustling construction sites that surround it. Taken on January 3,2018 by photographer Dinuka Liyanawatte for Reuters Images, this image showcases the dynamic nature of the construction industry in this vibrant city. The reflection on the glass panels creates an intriguing juxtaposition between the modern architecture and ongoing development. The geometrical shapes and lines formed by the buildings and cranes add to the visual appeal of this composition. With no people present in the frame, attention is solely focused on these man-made structures. The use of glass as a medium for capturing reflections adds depth and complexity to this photograph. It highlights how even something as simple as a window can be transformed into an artistic canvas when viewed from a different perspective. The absence of any commercial branding ensures that viewers can appreciate this image purely for its aesthetic value. The copy space allows room for interpretation and contemplation about urbanization, progress, or simply admiring architectural beauty. Overall, Dinuka Liyanawatte's skillful eye has captured an extraordinary moment where reality merges with artistry through reflective surfaces. This photograph serves as a testament to both human ingenuity in construction and photography's ability to capture fleeting moments that tell compelling stories about our world.
