EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print by Damir Sagolj, we are transported to the breathtaking shores of Namtso lake in the Tibet Autonomous Region. Standing at the water's edge is a Tibetan man, his silhouette framed against the stunning backdrop of mountains and clear blue skies. Namtso lake, located four hours drive from Lhasa, holds both natural and spiritual significance. At an astounding altitude of approximately 4,718 meters above sea level, it proudly claims its title as not only the highest saltwater lake in the world but also a place of great religious reverence. Considered sacred by many devotees and pilgrims alike, Namtso lake draws throngs of people seeking solace and connection with something greater than themselves. The serene beauty that surrounds them serves as a reminder of nature's majesty and inspires deep contemplation. The photographer skillfully captures this moment frozen in time; a solitary figure standing amidst vastness - perhaps reflecting on life's mysteries or finding solace within himself. The image evokes a sense of tranquility and awe-inspiring wonder that can only be found in such untouched landscapes. Sagolj's photograph invites us to immerse ourselves in this ethereal scene, allowing our imaginations to wander along with the gentle ripples on Namtso lake's surface. It reminds us that there are places where nature meets spirituality seamlessly – where humans find harmony within themselves while being humbled by their surroundings.
