EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Pascal Deloche, we are transported to the serene and ancient grounds of Saint Macaires Monastery in Egypt. The image beautifully encapsulates the essence of spirituality, faith, and devotion that permeates through this sacred place. As our eyes wander across the frame, we are drawn to a solitary Coptic monk immersed in prayer amidst the tranquil surroundings. His presence exudes a sense of tranquility and deep connection with his spiritual beliefs. The monastery itself stands as a testament to centuries-old Christian traditions, serving as a sanctuary for those seeking solace and enlightenment. The composition effortlessly blends elements of architecture, nature, and human presence. The architectural marvels showcase intricate details while harmoniously blending into their natural surroundings. This juxtaposition symbolizes the seamless integration between man-made structures and divine creation. This photograph not only captures an iconic religious site but also serves as a reminder of the rich cultural heritage found within Egypt's borders. It showcases how different faiths coexist peacefully in this region known for its diversity. Deloche's masterful lens work transports us to another world—a world where time seems suspended—an oasis of peace amidst chaos. Through this stunning visual narrative, we are invited to reflect upon our own spiritual journeys while appreciating the beauty that lies within various religious practices around the globe.
