Seagulls soar in the sky near Dokdo islets
Seagulls soar in the sky near Dokdo islets April 21, 2005. Many South Koreans see Tokyos fight over the easternmost islets of the Korean Peninsula as harkening back to Japans brutal 1910-1945 colonial rule over the peninsula. They see Tokyos claims as a land grab similar to the expansion Japan undertook in the first half of the 20th century. Japan refers to the islets as Takeshima. REUTERS/Lee Jae-Won LJW/YH - RP6DRMTZUIa

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the ethereal beauty of seagulls soaring gracefully in the sky near Dokdo islets. Taken on April 21,2005, this image holds deeper significance for many South Koreans who view Tokyo's ongoing dispute over these easternmost islets of the Korean Peninsula as a painful reminder of Japan's oppressive colonial rule from 1910 to 1945. The historical context adds layers of complexity to this seemingly serene scene. For South Koreans, Tokyo's claims over Dokdo are seen as an unwelcome attempt at land acquisition reminiscent of Japan's expansionist ambitions during the first half of the 20th century. The seagulls' flight symbolizes resilience and freedom against a backdrop tainted by memories of colonization. Photographer Lee Jae Won skillfully captures both the tranquility and underlying tension in this photograph. The contrast between nature's serenity and historical grievances creates a thought-provoking visual narrative that speaks volumes about national identity and territorial disputes. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing image, it serves as a poignant reminder that even amidst peaceful skies, echoes from history can still reverberate strongly within our collective consciousness.
