EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Justin Tallis, the iconic Big Ben clock face and the majestic Elizabeth Tower at the Houses of Parliament are beautifully framed through a fence in central London. The image was taken on June 22,2016, during a significant political moment for Britain - just days before the historic EU referendum. Symbolizing both time and power, Big Ben stands tall amidst its intricate architecture while proudly displaying its timeless elegance. The clock's hands seem to pause momentarily as if contemplating the weighty decision that lay ahead for Britain. Behind it, the Elizabeth Tower exudes an air of grandeur and history, reminding us of London's rich heritage. The presence of a fence in front of this revered landmark adds an intriguing layer to the composition. Perhaps it serves as a metaphorical barrier between politics and public opinion or signifies protection for this cherished symbol against external forces. Tallis' photograph encapsulates not only architectural beauty but also captures a pivotal moment in British history. It invites viewers to reflect upon their own perspectives on democracy and national identity during times of change and uncertainty. This AFP print is more than just an aesthetically pleasing image; it is a visual representation of Britain's political landscape frozen in time – forever etched within our collective memory.
