EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Ammar Awad, a street vendor in Amman, Jordan holds up a fish at a bustling market. The image showcases the vibrant atmosphere of the fishing industry as the vendor proudly displays his catch to potential customers passing by. The fish itself remains unrecognizable, adding an air of mystery and intrigue to the scene. The photograph beautifully captures the juxtaposition between nature and human activity. With its creative use of lighting and composition, it almost feels like an aquarium fish tank brought to life on the streets of Amman. The hand holding up the fish becomes a powerful symbol representing both trade and our connection with animals. As we observe this moment frozen in time, we can't help but appreciate how this single body part tells a larger story about people's relationship with their environment. It serves as a reminder that every day, countless individuals across the globe engage in activities that impact nature directly. This thought-provoking image invites us to reflect on our own role within these complex ecosystems while also appreciating the beauty found within everyday scenes such as markets. Through his lens, Awad has managed to capture not only multiple elements – from water droplets glistening on scales to real people going about their day – but also emotions ranging from pride to curiosity. Ultimately, this photograph is more than just a snapshot; it is an invitation for viewers to immerse themselves in another world where humans coexist with nature through trade and daily interactions like buying fresh produce at local markets.
