After the rain

Silver Award

Captured in London’s financial district in Bank, this image freezes the after-rain rush outside No. 6 Lombard Street. Silhouetted figures with umbrellas march briskly beneath the building’s neoclassical arcades, each one immersed in their personal destination. The diagonal movement of bodies across the wet pavement contrasts with the timeless authority of the architecture behind them. In this visual juxtaposition of transience and permanence, After the Rain reflects the quiet power of urban routine. The image serves as both documentation and observation—of pace, purpose, and the theatre of daily life in one of the world’s financial capitals.
