EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the enchanting beauty of the moon shining through a mesmerizing display of decorative lights in preparation for the Mid-Autumn or Moon Festival. Taken at a park in Hong Kong on September 8,2011, it showcases the rich cultural heritage and traditions celebrated by Chinese people worldwide. The festival, which falls on the 15th day of the eighth month according to the Lunar calendar, originated as a harvest moon celebration in ancient China. It also symbolizes the overthrow of Mongol rulers during the Yuan Dynasty. This year, it will be observed on September 12. In this image, we witness a low angle view that emphasizes both celestial and terrestrial elements. The radiant pink-colored lights create an ethereal atmosphere against the backdrop of darkness. The bokeh effect adds depth to this artistic composition while highlighting nature's splendor. With no human presence captured within its frame, this photograph invites us to appreciate not only its aesthetic appeal but also reflect upon our connection with nature and tradition. As we gaze at this stunning portrayal of light illuminating darkness, we are reminded of how festivals like these bring communities together under one sky - celebrating history, culture, and unity amidst changing times. Photographer Bobby Yip masterfully captures this moment using creative lighting techniques and skillful manipulation of focus to create an atmospheric masterpiece that transports viewers into a world where tradition meets modernity under a luminous moonlit sky.
