EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of Vietnamese culture and spirituality. In the heart of Ho Chi Minh City, at the Phuoc An Hoi Quan Pagoda, a Taoist temple stands as a place of worship and reverence. The image showcases incense sticks delicately placed on a joss stick pot, emanating fragrant smoke that is used to pay respect to Buddha. The vibrant colors in this vertical composition bring life to the scene, highlighting the rich traditions and religious practices found in Southeast Asia. With no people present, the focus remains solely on these two objects - symbols of devotion and faith. The close-up shot allows us to appreciate every detail: from the burning incense sticks releasing their aromatic scent into the air, to the intricate design of the joss stick pot itself. The foreground focus creates a sense of intimacy with these religious artifacts. As we gaze upon this photograph, we are transported into a world where time seems to stand still. It reminds us that amidst bustling cities and modern developments, there are sacred places where ancient customs continue to thrive. Pascal Deloche's lens has captured not only an exquisite moment frozen in time but also an invitation for travelers seeking authentic experiences in Vietnam. This image serves as a reminder that exploring different cultures can be both enlightening and spiritually fulfilling.
