EDITORS COMMENTS
In the early hours of a serene Washington morning, the United States Supreme Court stands tall and proud, ready to embark on a historic journey that will shape its legacy forever. This print captures the essence of this momentous occasion, as darkness gives way to the soft glow of city lights illuminating the magnificent building. The low angle view emphasizes the grandeur of this architectural marvel, with its modern design and towering pillars symbolizing strength and stability. The American flag flutters proudly atop a majestic flagpole, representing patriotism and unity in this great nation. As night turns into day, stars and stripes adorn the sky above, reminding us of our shared values and aspirations. With no people present in this image, it allows us to reflect upon the weighty decisions that lie ahead for these esteemed justices. This photograph serves as a visual testament to democracy at work - an embodiment of justice seeking truth amidst controversy. It is within these walls that history will be written as they deliberate on matters concerning marriage equality for gay men and lesbians. Gary Cameron's creative use of lighting adds depth to this composition while leaving ample copy space for contemplation. As we gaze upon this iconic landmark bathed in blue hues, we cannot help but celebrate both its significance today and its lasting impact on future generations.
