EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Adnan Abidi, we witness the resilience of the people in New Delhi as they stand on the roof of a house during a powerful dust storm. The image portrays an exterior scene where unrecognizable figures brave the harsh weather conditions, their silhouettes contrasting against the brown landscape and cloudy sky. The creative use of shadow and light highlights both the vulnerability and strength of these real individuals amidst nature's fury. The swirling air carries thick layers of dust, obscuring visibility but also creating an eerie atmosphere that adds to the intensity of the moment. Amidst this chaotic environment, a lone tree stands tall, its branches reaching towards the heavens. This juxtaposition symbolizes hope and endurance in face of adversity. The composition offers ample copy space for viewers to reflect upon their own experiences with extreme weather events or contemplate broader issues related to our changing climate. Adnan Abidi's photograph serves as a reminder that even in challenging circumstances, human beings find ways to adapt and persevere. It captures not only a specific event but also speaks to larger themes such as environmental impact and our connection with nature.
