EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Marcelo Del Pozo, we are transported to the vibrant streets of Seville, Spain. At the entrance of a traditional church, an unrecognizable vagrant extends his hand in a plea for help. The image is bathed in darkness, with only a faint glow from the streetlights illuminating the scene. The contrast between light and shadow adds depth and intensity to this poignant moment. Through the window of the church's doorway, we catch a glimpse of its interior - a symbol of faith and sanctuary juxtaposed against the harsh reality faced by those on the streets. This photograph creatively uses composition to draw attention to both the beggar's outstretched hand and his anonymous presence within society. His body language speaks volumes about his desperation as he navigates daily life as a homeless person. The image also highlights how compassion can be found amidst bustling city scenes; pedestrians walk leisurely past him, some pausing momentarily to offer support or spare change. In his weathered hand rests a plastic cup that serves as both receptacle and metaphor for hope. Marcelo Del Pozo captures not just an individual begging at an entrance but also invites us to reflect on larger societal issues such as poverty, religion, and empathy towards our fellow human beings.
