EDITORS COMMENTS
In this powerful image captured by Dinuka Liyanawatte, a poster illustration of a soldier and his rifle hangs solemnly behind an arrangement of poppies at the war memorial in Colombo. The vibrant red poppies symbolize Poppy Day or Remembrance Day, a time when people come together to honor and remember the sacrifices made by members of the armed forces and civilians during times of war. The low angle view adds depth to the composition, allowing us to appreciate every detail in this poignant scene. The close-up shot emphasizes the intricate illustration on the poster, showcasing creative use of colors and textures that bring it to life. Through this juxtaposition, we are confronted with both beauty and destruction - a reminder of the harsh realities faced by those who serve. The unrecognizable figures passing by add an element of surrealism to the photograph. They represent real people going about their daily lives in an urban city marked by conflict. This image serves as a stark reminder that even amidst chaos and destruction, faith and patriotism endure. The silhouette-like quality created by looking down from above gives an ominous feel to the scene. It evokes emotions associated with loss, protection, and escape - all themes deeply intertwined with wartime experiences. Overall, Liyanawatte's photograph captures not only a moment frozen in time but also encapsulates the collective memory shared on Remembrance Day worldwide: one filled with gratitude for those who have served while acknowledging our responsibility to strive for peace.
