The Watchman of The Turning Clouds
I took this picture while on a BLM march. The officer standing on the roof of the police station was one of a few who were taking pictures of the crowd. I believe the image has a lonely quality to it, given the empty windows, lone figure, and grey clouds. Loneliness has been a key factor in the pandemic, and this gets that across fairly well. It also shows the social turmoil going on underneath, both in its context of the establishment surveying the protest going on below, and the imagery of the authority of these times standing atop a building that seems hollow on a faded world.
