EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the timeless beauty of Ramses II and the Obelisk at Luxor Temple, illuminated under the night sky in Luxor, Egypt. As a UNESCO World Heritage Site, this ancient marvel stands as a testament to Egypt's rich past and its remarkable ancient civilization. The image transports us back in time, allowing us to witness the grandeur of Ramses II's reign. The colossal statue looms over the temple grounds, commanding attention with its imposing presence. The obelisk beside it adds an air of mystique and elegance to this archaeological site. The low angle view chosen by Gavin Hellier/Robert Harding emphasizes the magnitude of these historical treasures against the darkened backdrop. The soft glow from their illumination creates an ethereal ambiance that further enhances their allure. Luxor Temple itself is steeped in history and significance. Located in Thebes, it served as a place of worship for centuries and continues to be a revered travel destination today. This contemporary photograph beautifully captures both its architectural splendor and cultural importance. As we gaze upon this color image, we are reminded of Africa's vast heritage and how photography can transport us through time. It serves as a visual reminder that our world is filled with wonders waiting to be explored – both past and present – each offering glimpses into different chapters of human history.
