EDITORS COMMENTS
This haunting image captures the aftermath of a devastating attack on Palmyra city in Syria. Smoke billows into the sky, evidence of shelling carried out by Islamic State fighters, as reported by activists. The date is May 19,2015, and chaos reigns in this war-torn region. Despite their complete control over the central city, there are no immediate reports of destruction to the ancient ruins that have made Palmyra famous worldwide. This news comes from a group monitoring the war on May 21st. However, the ominous smoke rising against an otherwise serene backdrop hints at the fragility of these historical treasures. The photographer Omar Sanadiki skillfully captures both destruction and beauty in this photograph. The damaged exterior buildings stand as silent witnesses to violence and armed conflict that has ravaged this once-thriving city. Debris litters the ground while remnants of what was once a vibrant civilization now lay in ruins. The creative use of negative space emphasizes both emptiness and loss; there are no people present amidst this scene of devastation. The smoke-filled air hangs heavy with despair as it mingles with an expansive sky above. In one frame, Sanadiki encapsulates not only human violence but also its impact on our environment and cultural heritage. It serves as a stark reminder that even amid turmoil, we must strive to protect our shared history for future generations – before all that remains is smoke and ashes.
