EDITORS COMMENTS
In this powerful photo captured by Alexandros Avramidis, the intensity of clashes during a demonstration called by self-proclaimed anarchists from the Balkans is vividly portrayed. The image showcases a masked protester standing alone amidst chaos, defiantly throwing a petrol bomb against the backdrop of Thessaloniki, Greece on March 10,2018. The photograph encapsulates the spirit of resistance and rebellion as it captures the moment when tensions escalate between protesters and authorities. The flames from the petrol bomb create an intense blaze that illuminates both the face mask worn by the protester and their surroundings. The creative use of light highlights not only their determination but also adds to the overall dramatic effect. The unrecognizable figure in this image represents countless individuals who take to the streets to voice their opposition against nationalism. Through this single frame, we witness real people engaging in acts that challenge societal norms and demand change. As smoke billows into the air and fire engulfs nearby objects, including a tree in its path, one cannot help but be drawn into this chaotic scene. The rear view perspective further emphasizes how isolated yet resolute this individual appears amidst turmoil. Avramidis' skillful composition allows for ample copy space around these fiery events while capturing every detail with precision. This photograph serves as a reminder of how passion can ignite even under challenging circumstances – symbolizing both hope for progress and cautionary tales about social unrest.
