EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the Bhumibol bridge in Bangkok, Thailand, amidst a dense cloud of air pollution. Taken on February 15,2018, by renowned photographer Athit Perawongmetha for Reuters Images, this image portrays the alarming impact of climate change and global warming on urban cities. The cityscape is veiled in haze and indistinct outlines due to the heavy pollution that engulfs it. The modern architecture of skyscrapers stands tall against a sky tainted by smog, creating a striking contrast between progress and its environmental consequences. This creative use of perspective highlights both the beauty and fragility of our environment. With no people present in the frame, this photograph emphasizes how weather conditions can drastically affect our daily lives even when we are absent from the scene. It serves as a poignant reminder that air quality is not only an aesthetic concern but also a pressing issue affecting public health. Perawongmetha's skillful composition draws attention to the urgent need for sustainable practices to combat air pollution in bustling cities like Bangkok. Through his lens, he prompts viewers to reflect upon their individual responsibility towards preserving our planet's well-being.
