EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Luke MacGregor, the iconic Big Ben bell tower on the Houses of Parliament peeks through a uniquely shaped foil balloon. The image was taken during a passionate demonstration called the "March for Europe" in London, Britain on September 3,2016. Demonstrators gathered to express their dissent against the Brexit vote result earlier that year. The composition of this photograph is truly remarkable as it showcases both political activism and creative artistry. Against a backdrop of deep blue skies, the clock tower stands tall and proud, symbolizing time ticking away as Britain navigates its path forward post-Brexit. The use of depth of field adds an artistic touch to the image, with the foreground balloon slightly out of focus while still allowing us to clearly see Big Ben's grandeur. What makes this picture even more intriguing is that there are no people present; instead, attention is drawn solely to these powerful symbols: Big Ben representing British heritage and tradition, and the foil balloon reflecting public sentiment towards Brexit. Through MacGregor's lens, we witness a moment frozen in time where politics intertwines with creativity. This print serves as a visual reminder not only of significant historical events but also highlights how photography can capture emotions and tell stories without uttering a single word.
