EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of a Sunday Mass celebrated by Bishop Elias Chacour at the Haifa Melkite Cathedral in Haifa, Israel. The image showcases the rich customs and deep-rooted religious traditions of Christianity in this region of the Middle East. The vibrant color image transports viewers into the heart of this sacred gathering, taking place indoors on a peaceful day. The vertical composition allows for an intimate portrayal of people engaged in worship, with their faces illuminated by faith and devotion. In this frame, we see three-quarter length portraits of men participating in the Mass. Among them is Bishop Elias Chacour himself, adorned in his priestly vestments and carrying out his spiritual duties with grace and reverence. Surrounding him are other priests from the Melkite community who assist during this holy ceremony. The building interior exudes tranquility as elderly worshippers engage fervently in prayer. Their ages range between 60 to 70 years old, symbolizing a lifetime dedicated to their faith. Two men wearing crowns stand out among the congregation, adding an intriguing element to this scene. Through Godong/Robert Harding's lens, we are transported to a moment where spirituality intertwines with culture and tradition—a testament to how religion continues to shape lives across different corners of our world. This photograph serves as both a visual delight for travel enthusiasts seeking unique destinations and an insightful glimpse into religious practices that have stood strong throughout history.
