EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Jewel Samad, a US Secret Service agent stands tall and vigilant on the rooftop of the iconic White House in Washington, DC. Taken on September 29,2009, this image encapsulates the unwavering dedication and commitment of those entrusted with protecting one of the most significant symbols of American democracy. The White House itself is steeped in history and grandeur. Constructed between 1792 and 1800 using white-painted Aquia sandstone in the late Georgian style, it serves as both the official residence and primary workplace for the President of the United States. Its architectural magnificence is enhanced by its prominent position against a clear blue sky. As we gaze upon this vertical composition, our attention is drawn to the security guard who commands our respect through his poised stance atop this monumental structure. His presence symbolizes an unyielding shield that safeguards not only physical boundaries but also upholds democratic values within. This photograph reminds us that behind every powerful figure or institution lies a dedicated team working tirelessly to ensure their safety. It serves as a poignant reminder that even amidst towering structures and historical significance, there are unsung heroes who remain ever watchful to protect what matters most – preserving freedom and safeguarding democracy at all costs.
