EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of a Seven Churches Visitation pilgrimage during Holy Week on the Maltese islands. Standing tall and proud, the Laferla Cross dominates the highest point, serving as a symbolic representation of Christian beliefs. As darkness falls over the hill leading to Siggiewi village on Maundy Thursday, this black silhouette against the night sky creates an atmosphere of mystery and anticipation. The image beautifully showcases how faith can illuminate even in the darkest times. The creative use of lighting highlights the cross shape, emphasizing its significance in religious rituals and ceremonies. With no people present, it allows viewers to focus solely on this powerful symbol and contemplate their own spirituality. Surrounded by trees and set against a serene environment, this photograph transports us into a traditional cultural setting where religion plays a central role. It reminds us that Easter is not just another holiday but rather a time for reflection and resurrection. Darrin Zammit Lupi's skillful composition captures both the external beauty of this iconic cross and its deep-rooted meaning within Christianity. This print serves as an invitation to explore one's own beliefs while appreciating different cultures' rich religious traditions.
