EDITORS COMMENTS
In this breathtaking print captured by Hyungwon Kang, the night sky over Washington D. C. is illuminated with a spectacular display of fireworks on Independence Day in 2009. The United States Capitol dome and the iconic Washington Monument stand tall as witnesses to this awe-inspiring celebration of freedom and patriotism. As bursts of vibrant colors explode against the dark canvas above, it's impossible not to feel a surge of national pride. The dazzling symphony of lights reflects off the majestic structures below, creating an enchanting scene that embodies the spirit and resilience of America. The United States Capitol dome represents democracy and serves as a symbol of political power, while the Washington Monument stands as an enduring tribute to George Washington, America's first president. Together, they form an iconic backdrop for this mesmerizing moment in time. Hyungwon Kang's skillful composition captures both the grandeur of these architectural marvels and the explosive beauty unfolding above them. Each firework seems to paint its own unique stroke across the sky, leaving behind trails that fade into darkness but remain etched in our memories forever. This photograph reminds us why Independence Day holds such significance for Americans - it is a day when we come together as one nation under fireworks-filled skies to celebrate our shared values and freedoms.
