Shadow of clenched fist of protester is seen on Chinese national flag during anti-Japan
A shadow of the clenched fist of a protester is seen on a Chinese national flag during an anti-Japan protest outside the Japanese embassy in Beijing August 19, 2012. Several Japanese nationalists landed on Sunday on a rocky island in the East China Sea at the heart of a territorial row with Beijing, a move all but certain to fan anger in China and worsen ties between Asias two biggest economies. Tokyo and Beijing have been feuding for decades over the island chain, known as the Senkaku in Japan and the Diaoyu in China, near potentially huge maritime gas fields.

EDITORS COMMENTS
In this powerful image captured by Jason Lee, the shadow of a clenched fist is seen projected onto a Chinese national flag during an anti-Japan protest outside the Japanese embassy in Beijing. The photograph perfectly encapsulates the intense emotions and deep-rooted patriotism that fuel such demonstrations. The low angle view adds to the dramatic effect, emphasizing the prominence of both the raised fist and the national flag. The juxtaposition between these two symbols creates a striking contrast - on one hand, we have an individual's expression of frustration and defiance through their clenched fist, while on the other hand, we see a representation of China as a unified nation through its flag. The unrecognizable silhouette further emphasizes that this image represents not just one person or moment but rather captures a collective sentiment shared by many. It serves as a reminder that behind every demonstration lies real people with genuine beliefs and concerns. This photo also highlights creative use of composition with its star-shaped shadow cast upon the red-colored background of the Chinese flag. This visual element adds depth to an already impactful scene, symbolizing faith in their cause and unity among protestors. Overall, this picture stands out as one of Reuters' top images due to its ability to capture both raw emotion and political tension within a single frame.
