EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo captured by Finbarr O'Reilly, a Rwandan woman gracefully carries an umbrella to shield herself from the scorching sun in Mulindi, located about 60 km north of Rwanda's capital city, Kigali. The image was taken on August 5,2010, just days before the country's presidential election. As Rwanda prepared for this crucial political event, the photograph beautifully encapsulates both the resilience and determination of its people. With her vibrant traditional attire contrasting against the arid landscape, this woman becomes a symbol of hope amidst challenging times. The umbrella she holds not only provides shade but also serves as a metaphorical representation of protection and shelter. It reflects her desire to safeguard her rights as she prepares to exercise her democratic duty at the polls. Rwanda has come a long way since its tragic history marred by genocide in 1994. This image captures a nation striving for progress and stability through peaceful elections. It reminds us that even under difficult circumstances, individuals can find strength within themselves to participate actively in shaping their future. Finbarr O'Reilly's lens immortalizes this momentary pause amid bustling campaign activities—a brief respite where one woman stands tall with grace and poise against all odds. Through his artistry, he invites viewers to reflect upon the significance of democracy and recognize that every vote counts towards building a brighter tomorrow for Rwanda.
