EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we witness a mesmerizing scene during Vesak Day, an annual celebration of the birth, enlightenment, and death of Buddha. The image transports us to a temple in Nakhon Pathom province on the outskirts of Bangkok, where devout Buddhists encircle a magnificent Buddha statue while carrying flickering candles. The composition is illuminated by the soft glow emitted from these countless flames held by devotees. Their faces are serene as they engage in this sacred ritual that symbolizes their reverence for Buddha's teachings and his profound impact on humanity. The long exposure technique used to capture this moment adds an ethereal quality to the photograph, accentuating the spiritual ambiance that permeates throughout. This particular year holds special significance as it marks the 2600th anniversary of Buddha's enlightenment. The commemoration amplifies both the devotion and joy radiating from those participating in this ancient tradition. Through this image, we are reminded of Buddhism's enduring legacy and its ability to inspire millions around the world. Photographer Chaiwat Subprasom masterfully captures not only a visual spectacle but also offers us a glimpse into a deeply meaningful cultural event. This powerful snapshot invites contemplation about our own beliefs and spirituality while celebrating diversity and unity through religion.
