Peace … by Tanmoy Saha

Captured from a rooftop in Narayangonj, this evocative image explores the dual symbolism of pigeons as icons of both peace and freedom. The photographer observed a local enthusiast’s flock, struck by the profound irony that these birds, though possessing the liberty to fly anywhere, choose to remain in their home. By focusing on the birds in their natural, domestic environment, the image captures a quiet, contemplative moment that highlights the photographer's ability to find beauty in everyday life. The composition is award-worthy for its thematic depth, transforming a simple scene of urban wildlife into a poignant meditation on the nature of contentment and belonging.
