Supporters of the Hungarian far right Jobbik party march in a heavy snow fall
Supporters of the Hungarian far right Jobbik party march in a heavy snow fall, during a demonstration in Szigethalom near Budapest January 12, 2013. Two young athletes were involved in a bar fight and stabbing on New Years Eve, in which some of the attackers were reportedly Roma, provoking angry outbursts from the far right stating some of the Roma minority cannot coexist peacefully with Hungarians.

EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Laszlo Balogh, supporters of the Hungarian far-right Jobbik party march through a heavy snowfall during a demonstration in Szigethalom near Budapest on January 12,2013. The image portrays an atmospheric scene where the falling snowflakes create a picturesque backdrop against the dark night sky. The photograph was taken amidst rising tensions following a bar fight and stabbing incident involving two young athletes on New Year's Eve. Reports suggest that some of the attackers were from the Roma minority, which sparked outrage among far-right groups who claimed that peaceful coexistence between Hungarians and Roma is impossible. Balogh's composition skillfully captures the unity and determination of these demonstrators as they walk together through the cold streets of Szigethalom. The low angle view adds to their imposing presence while also highlighting the beauty in nature with ice-covered surfaces reflecting light from various sources. This powerful image not only documents civil unrest but also serves as a reminder of our changing environment. As global warming continues to impact our world, heavy snowfalls like this one become increasingly rare, making this moment all the more significant. Through his creative use of lighting and silhouette techniques, Balogh has managed to encapsulate both social tension and natural beauty within a single frame.
