EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, captured by Ivan Alvarado for Reuters Images, we are transported to the heart of Til Til, Chile. The image showcases a poignant juxtaposition between an Animita and a train track used for transporting garbage. The scene is filled with symbolism and tells a powerful story about the town's struggle with its trash problem. The focal point of the photograph is an Animita, a traditional memorial found in public places to remember tragic events. Its presence next to the railway track creates an intriguing contrast between remembrance and waste management. The cross-shaped stone structure stands tall amidst the grassy landscape, representing both religious devotion and cultural heritage. Alvarado's masterful composition draws attention to every detail within the frame. The weathered chapel exterior adds depth and character while flowers delicately placed around the memorial bring life to this solemn setting. With a view from above, we can appreciate how these elements come together harmoniously despite their contrasting nature. Through his lens, Alvarado sheds light on Til Til's big trash problem without depicting any people directly involved in it. Instead, he relies on creative use of focus and perspective to convey the impact on both environment and culture. This thought-provoking image serves as a reminder that even in small towns like Til Til, environmental challenges persist alongside deep-rooted traditions - urging us all to reflect upon our own responsibility towards preserving our planet for future generations.
