EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the serene presence of Buddhist monks at the magnificent Angkor Wat in Siem Reap, Cambodia. As a UNESCO World Heritage Site, this ancient temple complex stands as a testament to the rich history and cultural heritage of Southeast Asia. In this image, we see a group of male monks dressed in their traditional robes, standing outside the entrance of Angkor Wat. The intricate stone work and elaborate carvings on the doorway showcase the architectural brilliance of this ancient civilization. The bald heads and hairless appearance of these monks symbolize their commitment to spiritualism and detachment from worldly desires. With their calm demeanor and bent postures, they exude an aura of tranquility that is deeply rooted in Buddhist teachings. As they stand amidst the ruins, surrounded by centuries-old structures, it is impossible not to feel a sense of awe for both the physical beauty and historical significance that Angkor Wat represents. This photograph perfectly encapsulates the fusion between religion, history, and architecture that makes this site such a popular tourist attraction. Through Gavin Hellier/Robert Harding's lens, we are transported into a world where time seems to stand still – where ancient civilizations come alive through color and detail. This print serves as a reminder of our collective human heritage and invites us to explore further into the depths of Cambodian culture.
