EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print by Carlos Jasso, the U. S. Capitol Building stands tall and majestic as people walk past it in Washington, D. C. The image captures the essence of politics and power, with the historic building serving as a symbol of democracy. The exterior of the Capitol is beautifully illuminated against the night sky, creating a stunning contrast between light and shadow. The unrecognizable figures walking past add an air of mystery to the scene, allowing viewers to imagine themselves in their shoes. The creative use of depth of field and silhouette gives a sense of movement and energy to the photograph. The urban city environment surrounding the Capitol provides a stark reminder that politics exist within real communities where everyday people live their lives. The copy space allows for contemplation on how political decisions impact our daily existence and shape our future. Nature also plays a role in this composition; despite being surrounded by concrete structures, there is still room for glimpses of greenery and open skies above. This juxtaposition highlights both human creation and natural beauty coexisting harmoniously. Overall, Carlos Jasso's photograph skillfully captures not only an iconic architectural masterpiece but also evokes thoughts about society, power dynamics, history, and our place within them.
