EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Lillian Suwanrumpha, we witness a moment of utmost respect and devotion as Thai Royal Army members stand to attention during the celebrations for Thailand's King Maha Vajiralongkorn's 66th birthday. The image was taken near the majestic Grand Palace in Bangkok on July 28,2018. The composition of the photograph is strikingly beautiful, with a reflection of the scene perfectly mirrored in a puddle on the ground. This adds an artistic touch to an already powerful image, emphasizing the significance and grandeur of this occasion. The armed forces are showcased in all their glory, standing tall and proud while paying homage to their beloved king. Amongst them stands a woman soldier, breaking gender stereotypes and displaying her unwavering dedication alongside her male counterparts. This military parade serves as a reminder of the deep-rooted traditions and customs that hold great importance within Thai culture. It symbolizes unity, loyalty, and reverence towards their monarchy—a bond that has stood strong throughout history. Lillian Suwanrumpha's lens captures not only a moment frozen in time but also encapsulates the spirit of patriotism that resonates within every member present at this celebration. Through her lens, we can feel the pride emanating from these soldiers as they honor their king on his special day.
