EDITORS COMMENTS
This close-up print captures the aftermath of a fierce conflict in Donetsk, eastern Ukraine. In the image, a piece of a mortar projectile lies on a desolate road near the airport, symbolizing the destruction and chaos that has plagued this war-torn region. The photograph was taken on September 1,2014, during a time when separatists claimed victory with the alleged withdrawal of Ukrainian soldiers from the airport. The composition focuses on the detailed view of the mortar fragment against an asphalt street backdrop. The creative use of lighting highlights its jagged edges and battered surface, serving as a poignant reminder of the violence that unfolded here. The bomb's impact is evident through the presence of a gaping hole in the road nearby. With no people present in this scene, it emphasizes how conflicts can ravage communities and leave behind only remnants like this solitary piece of weaponry. This image encapsulates both physical damage caused by warfare and political unrest gripping Ukraine at that time. Photographer Maxim Shemetov skillfully captures not just an ordinary snapshot but also conveys deeper meanings about war's devastating consequences. Through his lens, he invites viewers to reflect upon these events while leaving ample copy space for interpretation or commentary on Ukraine's ongoing crisis.
