EDITORS COMMENTS
In this image captured by Himanshu Sharma, we witness the essence of faith and devotion as a Hindu woman gracefully walks past a magnificent Kalpavriksha tree. The photograph was taken during a vibrant festival on the outskirts of Ajmer, India, on August 2,2016. The unidentified woman carries religious offerings in her hands while adorned in traditional clothes that reflect the rich cultural heritage of her religion. As she strolls along with an air of tranquility and reverence, it is evident that she is deeply immersed in her spiritual journey. The Kalpavriksha tree holds immense significance for Hindus as it is believed to be a divine wishing tree. Its branches stretch towards the heavens like arms reaching out to grant prayers and desires. This sacred symbol serves as a focal point for worshipers who seek blessings and guidance. Surrounded by colorful decorations and engulfed in an atmosphere filled with celebration, this moment captures the harmonious blend of tradition and spirituality. It reminds us of the power of rituals and ceremonies that bring people together to honor their beliefs. Through his creative use of composition and lighting, Himanshu Sharma has beautifully encapsulated both the physical beauty of nature's creation - represented by the majestic Kalpavriksha tree - as well as the inner beauty found within individuals expressing their devotion through acts such as carrying religious offerings.
