EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we are transported to the serene Temple of the Tooth (Sri Dalada Maligawa) in Kandy, Sri Lanka. The image captures a profound moment as people gather to light candles in prayer, creating an ethereal ambiance that fills the air with spirituality. The temple's tranquil atmosphere is enhanced by wisps of incense smoke gently rising from burning sticks, adding a mystical touch to the scene. A woman stands amidst the crowd, her face illuminated by candlelight as she offers her heartfelt prayers. This snapshot beautifully encapsulates the essence of travel and religion coming together harmoniously. The vertical composition allows us to focus on the foreground where devotees engage in their sacred rituals while background figures add depth and context to this place of worship. The vibrant colors bring life to every element within the frame, showcasing both cultural richness and spiritual devotion. Ian Trower/Robert Harding has masterfully captured not just a photograph but also a glimpse into another world - one filled with faith and reverence. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing image, we are reminded of how diverse our planet is and how different cultures find solace through various religious practices. This print serves as a visual reminder that even though we may come from different backgrounds or hold different beliefs, there is something universally human about seeking solace in prayer and finding peace within ourselves.
