EDITORS COMMENTS
In a powerful symbol of remembrance, candles flicker outside the majestic Frauenkirche cathedral in Dresden. This poignant scene captures the solemn commemoration of the devastating World War II bombing that once ravaged this historic German city. The photograph, taken by Hannibal Hanschke on February 13,2018, transports us to an evening filled with reverence and reflection. As dusk settles over the urban landscape, the flames dance against the backdrop of an ethereal sky. The close-up shot focuses on a single candle's flame, its glow illuminating both tangible and intangible elements. Unrecognizable figures stand nearby, their silhouettes blending into one collective presence paying homage to those who lost their lives during wartime. The creative use of depth of field adds a sense of mystery and contemplation to this image. With parts intentionally out-of-focus, our attention is drawn solely to these symbolic candles that serve as beacons for memory and hope. This print not only captures a moment frozen in time but also serves as a reminder that even amidst destruction and darkness, humanity can find solace in unity and resilience. It stands as a testament to how places like Dresden can rise from ashes while honoring their past. Hanschke's composition skillfully blends elements such as architecture, nature, firelight, and people into one harmonious frame—a visual representation of how history intertwines with contemporary life. Through his lens, we witness not just an environment or religious building but rather an enduring memorial where
