EDITORS COMMENTS
In this powerful image captured by Amit Dave, we witness a man's unwavering devotion as he places an oil lamp in the polluted waters of the Yamuna River after offering his prayers. The photograph, taken on June 2nd, 2018 in New Delhi, India, showcases the man's hand delicately holding the lamp against a backdrop of murky water. The close-up shot allows us to focus on this solitary act of religious ceremony amidst environmental degradation. The unrecognizable figure symbolizes countless individuals who continue to practice their faith despite challenging circumstances. With its reflection shimmering upon the contaminated surface, the oil lamp serves as a beacon of hope and resilience. This image creatively captures both beauty and despair simultaneously. It highlights not only the deep-rooted religious traditions but also draws attention to pressing issues such as water pollution that plague our environment today. The juxtaposition between spirituality and ecological concerns prompts viewers to reflect upon our collective responsibility towards preserving nature for future generations. From above, we gain a unique perspective that emphasizes how one individual's actions can have far-reaching consequences for our planet. As we contemplate this thought-provoking photograph by Amit Dave, it serves as a reminder that even in times of adversity, faith can inspire meaningful gestures towards healing our environment and nurturing our souls.
