EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Timothy A. Clary of Agence France-Presse (AFP), the iconic Brooklyn Bridge takes center stage as it serves as a solemn backdrop for The Way of the Cross passage on Good Friday. Against a cloudy sky, the bridge's magnificent architecture stands tall and proud, symbolizing strength and resilience. Sponsored by the Movement of Communion and Liberation, this annual procession faithfully recreates Christ's arduous journey to Calvary. As believers traverse across the landmark structure, they commemorate five stations of Jesus Christ's Passion publicly. This offbeat illustration showcases not only their unwavering faith but also their deep devotion to religious traditions. The composition of this photograph is truly remarkable; it captures both the grandeur of human engineering in the form of the Brooklyn Bridge and its juxtaposition with an act rooted in spirituality and reverence. The horizontal framing allows us to fully appreciate both elements simultaneously. As we gaze upon this image, we are reminded that religion has always played a significant role in shaping our society, often intertwining with our architectural marvels like bridges that connect people physically and spiritually. It is through such events that communities come together to express their beliefs openly while finding solace amidst life's trials. This AFP print encapsulates a moment where faith meets modernity against an atmospheric backdrop – a powerful testament to humanity's ability to find meaning even amidst towering structures under cloudy skies.
