EDITORS COMMENTS
As the day comes to a close, the sun casts its golden hues over the picturesque scene of palm trees surrounding Japan's team base camp in Itu. This print captures the serene beauty and tranquility that exists amidst the excitement and chaos of the 2014 World Cup in Brazil. In this unique project titled "On The Sidelines". Reuters photographers like Maxim Shemetov share their unconventional perspectives on this global sporting event. Shemetov's creative eye allows us to witness a different side of the World Cup, one where nature intertwines with soccer. The juxtaposition of palm trees against a backdrop synonymous with football showcases how sports can coexist harmoniously with our environment. As Japan's national team prepares for their matches, they find solace and inspiration in this idyllic setting – an oasis away from bustling stadiums and boisterous crowds. This photograph not only encapsulates Japans' team base camp but also serves as a reminder that amidst fierce competition, there is still room for serenity and appreciation for nature's wonders. It invites viewers to take a momentary pause from the intensity of soccer fever and bask in the ethereal beauty created by Mother Nature herself. Maxim Shemetov skillfully captures this fleeting moment when daylight fades into twilight, leaving behind an enchanting ambiance that lingers long after sunset. Through his lens, we are transported to Itu, northwest of Sao Paulo – a place where sport meets tranquility under Brazil's vibrant skies.
