EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Yannis Behrakis, we witness the sheer power and beauty of nature as a sailing boat navigates its way towards Piraeus harbor. The scene is set in the Aegean Sea on January 21,2000, with an impending storm looming in the distance. As dark clouds gather overhead and waves grow more turbulent, it becomes evident that these treacherous conditions are not to be taken lightly. The image serves as a reminder of the challenges faced by sailors who dare to venture into unpredictable waters. Strong winds have plagued the Aegean for weeks, prompting authorities to impose bans on sailing multiple times. Yet despite these warnings, our brave sailor persists in their journey towards safety. Yannis Behrakis skillfully captures both the vulnerability and determination embodied by this lone vessel against an ominous backdrop. The contrast between the peacefulness of Piraeus harbor and the approaching storm creates a sense of tension within the frame. This photograph stands as a testament to human resilience and our unwavering spirit when faced with adversity. It reminds us that even amidst turmoil, there is always hope for safe passage if one possesses courage and perseverance.
