EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo captured by Akhtar Soomro, a young boy walks past a peculiar structure being set up on a bridge in Karachi. The purpose of this structure is to deliberately obstruct the view of those passing by. Taken at dusk, the low angle view allows us to witness the silhouette of the child against the backdrop of an enchanting sunset. As we gaze upon this image, we are drawn to the mysterious atmosphere created by the unrecognizable figure and their shadow stretching across the bridge. The sky above is adorned with wispy clouds that seem to dance around a mesmerizing moon, adding an element of mystique to this scene. The creative use of light and composition emphasizes not only the physical presence of humans but also highlights our connection with nature and environment. The boy's solitary walk symbolizes his resilience as he navigates through life's obstacles while simultaneously reminding us that each individual has their own unique journey. This photograph serves as a powerful reminder that even when faced with barriers intentionally placed before us, there is always beauty in our surroundings waiting to be discovered. It prompts us to reflect on how we perceive our world and encourages us to seek out alternative perspectives beyond what may initially appear obstructed or hidden from view.
