EDITORS COMMENTS
In this powerful image captured by Edgard Garrido, we witness a heartwarming scene of resilience and hope. After a devastating earthquake struck off the southern coast of Mexico, the people of Juchitan come together to wave at a helicopter soaring above them. The low angle view adds depth to the photo, making us feel as though we are standing among the crowd. The unrecognizable figures raise their hands towards the sky, their silhouettes creating an awe-inspiring sight against the backdrop of buildings and power cables. This creative use of body parts showcases both human strength and vulnerability in face of nature's wrath. As we gaze upon this photograph, it is impossible not to be moved by its symbolism. The helicopter represents assistance and rescue amidst chaos, while also highlighting our reliance on technology during times of crisis. The open sky serves as a reminder that even in moments when everything seems uncertain, there is always room for hope. Edgard Garrido masterfully captures not only an event but also emotions – fear, unity, and determination – all within one frame. This image stands as a testament to humanity's ability to come together in times of adversity and reminds us that no matter how destructive nature can be, it cannot break our spirit or extinguish our will to help one another.
