President of Gdańsk (Poland) was murdered during a charity event. This is the result of hate speech. What hurts most is that it will not stop this overwhelming evil.

You are so right, it is awful.

[Dianne]

A fitting and powerful image.

Different

[Clare Gadsby]

powerful image indeed

[Jennifer Potter]

Very strong image. Beautiful and I love the use of the negative space with the single flame. Very well done!

[Eddie S]

The placement of the flame within the frame was well chosen.

[Lynn]

A powerful response to the shocking murder of Paweł Adamowicz

[Humphrey Hippo]

A very striking image. I've stopped reading the news - it feels like the world is going mad half the time.

Great use of negative space

very impressiv interpretation of the event

[Helen Jane]

Terrible. the darkness is overwhelming, (but the light still shines). A lovely tribute image.

[Jean]

Horrible! I read that the assailant just got out of prison a month ago.

[KoalaGardens🐨]

I like the image of a light still shining even in all the depth of darkness

[Kathy]

Nice minimalist low key image. His light will shine on as long as you and people like you remember him and what he stood for and carry on his legacy.

[Shari]

Well done.

[Marnie]

The whole world seems to be full of hate-speech, violence and big egos that think they know it all. All very sad and very worrying. These people need to read their history books to see where all that hate and ego takes the world.

[Islandgirl]

Very nice on black!

[Jane Pittenger]

Oh ouch once again. So heartbreaking and what can we do?

[Lois]

Powerful photo

I'm sorry. This is so sad..

[Marloes]

Terrible...
great minimalistic tribute

[FBailey]

Terrific shot - still light in the darkness

[Ann H. LeFevre]

Beautiful capture to illustrate such a huge tragedy. The only thing that I know which can overcome evil is God's love in the hearts of people- just like this one single light which can bring warmth into a dark room, the light of God's love can bring life to a dark world.

[aikimomm (phoebe)]

Yes. There is light in the darkness.

[Richard Sayer]

Kathy @randystreat has it spot on.

[Walks @ 7]

A poignant image. The hate speech must be swallowed up by love and compassion. @randystreat said it best. Many prayers for all in Poland.
