EDITORS COMMENTS
In this powerful print captured by Danish Ismail, an Indian policeman is seen chasing protesters amidst a cloud of tear gas smoke during a demonstration that took place after Jumat-ul-Vida, the last Friday prayers of Ramadan. The image showcases the intensity and chaos that unfolded on the streets of Srinagar on June 8,2018. The damaged surroundings and safety clothing worn by both the officer and protesters highlight the dangerous nature of this situation. The unrecognizable figures in shadow add to the sense of anonymity and tension in an urban city setting. Real people are depicted engaging in acts of violence while surrounded by buildings bathed in sunlight. Ismail's creative use of composition allows for copy space within the frame, emphasizing not only the immediate environment but also drawing attention to wider issues such as social unrest and political turmoil. The weather conditions further enhance this narrative with smoke lingering in the air. This photograph serves as a stark reminder of how protests can escalate into volatile situations where tear gas remains airborne alongside potential firearm dangers faced by law enforcement officers. It captures a moment frozen in time, encapsulating both fear and determination from all sides involved.
