EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the serene beauty of Burning candles at Shwedagon Pagoda (Shwedagon Zedi Daw) in Yangon, Myanmar. The Golden Pagoda, dating back to the 6th century, stands tall as a symbol of ancient history and spirituality. As one gazes upon this image, they are transported to a place where time seems to stand still. The focal point of the photograph is the foreground filled with burning candles, illuminating the scene with their gentle glow. These flickering flames represent devotion and reverence within Buddhism, which is deeply ingrained in Myanmar's culture and tradition. The architectural marvel of Shwedagon Pagoda can be seen in all its glory from afar. Its ornate golden exterior shines brightly against the blue sky, showcasing its status as a national landmark and international icon. With no people present in the frame, one can truly appreciate the grandeur and tranquility that emanates from this sacred place of worship. This absence allows us to focus on every intricate detail that makes up this historical treasure. Matthew Williams-Ellis/Robert Harding has skillfully captured not just an image but also a glimpse into Myanmar's rich heritage and cultural significance. Through his lens, we are reminded of our connection to traditions passed down through generations and how they continue to shape our world today.
