EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures an elevated view at dusk over the enchanting Old Town, a UNESCO World Heritage Site in Riga, Latvia. The image showcases the city's rich history and architectural beauty dating back to the 19th century. Standing tall amidst the old town is a magnificent cathedral with Byzantine influences, known as Nativity of Christ Cathedral. The photograph beautifully portrays the essence of this European gem, showcasing its religious significance and cultural heritage. The vertical composition emphasizes the grandeur of this place of worship while also highlighting its integration into the charming old town landscape. As day turns to night, a long exposure technique has been used to capture bright lights illuminating both the cathedral and surrounding areas. This creates a mesmerizing contrast against the darkening sky, adding depth and drama to an already picturesque scene. With its inclusion as a national landmark and one of Europe's most sought-after travel destinations, Riga offers visitors an opportunity to step back in time and immerse themselves in centuries-old architecture and captivating history. The incidental people captured within this image remind us that even amidst such historical splendor, life continues on. Douglas Pearson/Robert Harding's skillful photography transports viewers into this magical moment where past meets present in perfect harmony.
