EDITORS COMMENTS
In this powerful image captured by Beawiharta, the aftermath of a devastating blast at the Pentecost Church Central Surabaya (GPPS) in Surabaya, Indonesia is starkly depicted. A burned tree stands as a haunting symbol of destruction and loss against the backdrop of an urban cityscape. The photograph was taken during evening hours, as dusk settles over the scene, adding to its somber atmosphere. The absence of people in the frame allows viewers to focus solely on the impact of this tragic event on both nature and society. The creative use of lighting emphasizes the contrast between light and darkness, highlighting not only the burnt remains but also hinting at hope with a beautiful sunset in the distance. This image serves as a reminder of how quickly life can change and how fragile our environment truly is. It prompts us to reflect on our responsibility towards preserving our surroundings for future generations. Through his lens, Beawiharta captures not just a moment frozen in time but also raises awareness about environmental issues that arise from such incidents. As we contemplate this photograph, let it serve as a call to action – urging us all to work together towards creating safer communities and protecting our planet from further harm.
