This photograph captures a rare moment in Montreal, following an intense storm. During the storm, police officers were seen helping stranded drivers. As the storm subsided and the sky cleared, I was photographing the beautiful sight of Tyndall light filtering through the leaves. In that moment, a police officer on horseback unexpectedly appeared in the frame, resembling a triumphant warrior. No matter the circumstances, they stand firm, protecting the city.
