EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Mike Theiler, a lone policeman walks with purpose and determination at the plaza on the East front of the U. S. Capitol as the sun rises in the early dawn. The image was taken prior to the 57th inauguration ceremonies for US President Barack Obama and Vice President Joe Biden in Washington on January 21,2013. The tranquil scene portrays a sense of anticipation and preparation for an important event that is about to unfold. As daylight breaks through, casting a warm glow over the iconic building, it symbolizes hope and new beginnings. The solitary figure of the policeman adds depth to this composition. With his uniformed presence against such a grand backdrop, he represents not only security but also serves as a reminder of those who tirelessly work behind-the-scenes to ensure safety during significant moments like these. This photograph captures both political significance and natural beauty simultaneously. It showcases how politics intertwines with our environment; how monumental events take place amidst stunning cityscapes. Mike Theiler's skillful lens has frozen this fleeting moment in time, allowing us to reflect upon history unfolding before our eyes. This image serves as a poignant reminder of unity, progress, and democracy – values that are deeply rooted within America's core identity.
