EDITORS COMMENTS
In this heart-wrenching image captured by Athit Perawongmetha, we witness the raw emotions of a resident affected by the devastating earthquake and tsunami that struck Palu, Central Sulawesi in Indonesia. The photograph portrays a moment during Friday prayers when grief overwhelms this individual, causing tears to stream down their face. The close-up shot allows us to observe the intricate details of their hand covering their anguished expression. With an unrecognizable figure praying beside them, it emphasizes the unity and shared sorrow experienced by those impacted by this natural disaster. The composition skillfully captures the essence of sadness and despair as nature's destructive forces have left scars on both land and people alike. The nail-biting intensity is palpable through every pixel of this image. As viewers, we are reminded of the powerlessness felt in such catastrophic events while simultaneously appreciating the resilience displayed by survivors who find solace in prayer amidst unimaginable loss. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder that despite our differences or geographical distance, human suffering transcends all boundaries. It compels us to reflect upon our own lives and extend compassion towards those grappling with tragedy far from our own shores.
