EDITORS COMMENTS
In this powerful image captured by Marty Melville of Agence France-Presse (AFP), participants gather at Frank Kits Park in Wellington, New Zealand to hold a candlelight vigil on June 13,2016. The solemn gathering serves as a poignant remembrance for the victims of the tragic Orlando shooting in Florida. The photograph showcases the unity and resilience of humanity in times of darkness. As each individual holds their candle, their collective light illuminates the night sky, symbolizing hope and solidarity. The warm glow from these flickering flames reflects not only the physical light but also an emotional beacon that transcends borders and brings people together. Wellington's serene atmosphere adds to the somber ambiance, providing a tranquil backdrop for reflection and mourning. The composition captures both horizontal lines formed by rows of participants and vertical elements created by candles held high, creating a visually striking scene. This print is more than just an aesthetically pleasing image; it encapsulates compassion, empathy, and support during moments of tragedy. It reminds us that even across vast distances like those between New Zealand and America, communities can come together to honor lives lost too soon. Marty Melville's skillful lens has frozen this heartfelt moment in time forever – one that speaks volumes about our shared humanity when faced with adversity.
