EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Navesh Chitrakar, the Bagmati River in the Pashupatinath Temple is beautifully illuminated by a multitude of oil lamps. Taken during the Bala Chaturdashi festival in Kathmandu on November 21,2014, this image showcases the devotion and faith of worshippers who offer these lamps to honor their departed loved ones. The river glows with ethereal light as devotees scatter seven types of grains known as "sat biu" along its course. This ritualistic act symbolizes reverence for those who have passed away and serves as a way to celebrate their lives. The architectural beauty of the temple stands tall against the night sky, providing a stunning backdrop for this religious spectacle. The creative use of lighting adds an enchanting touch to the scene, creating a picturesque atmosphere that is both serene and mystical. This photograph captures not only a cultural tradition but also highlights nature's role in religious practices. The flowing water reflects the flickering glow from each lamp, enhancing its spiritual significance. With no people present in this shot, it allows viewers to focus solely on the mesmerizing display before them. It serves as a reminder of how traditions can bring communities together while honoring their heritage and beliefs. Navesh Chitrakar's skillful composition perfectly encapsulates both faith and illumination within one frame—a testament to his talent as a photographer capturing moments that transcend time and space.
