EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print by Andrew Chittock, we are transported to the bustling seaport of Benghazi, Libya. The focal point of the image is a formidable Libyan Navy Foxtrot-class military submarine, majestically moored to the pier. Its imposing presence dominates the frame, showcasing its sleek and powerful structure. The conning tower stands tall against the clear blue sky, symbolizing both strength and authority. This close-up shot allows us to appreciate every detail of this historic vessel - from its weathered exterior to its intricate superstructure. As we delve deeper into the photograph, it becomes evident that this submarine carries a rich history with it. Built during Soviet times as part of Project 641, it serves as a reminder of Libya's complex political landscape and foreign military influences. Although devoid of people in this particular moment captured by Chittock's lens, one can imagine sailors scurrying about on deck or preparing for their next mission under NATO supervision. It is an intriguing glimpse into a world unknown to many. This vibrant color image transports us directly into the heart of Benghazi's maritime activity while simultaneously evoking curiosity about Libya's naval capabilities and geopolitical dynamics in the Middle East region.
