EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, the statue of Jesus Christ at the Resurrection of our Lord parish church stands tall and powerful against a backdrop of a breathtaking sunrise in Paranaque city, Metro Manila. The silhouette created by the rising sun adds an air of mystery and intrigue to this religious symbol. The image captures the essence of Christianity as it portrays Jesus Christ, arms outstretched in a gesture that signifies love and compassion for all. The black color of the statue's silhouette against the vibrant hues of dawn creates a striking contrast that emphasizes its significance. This creative use of light showcases not only Erik de Castro's artistic talent but also highlights the spiritual importance placed on this religious building. With no people present, it allows viewers to focus solely on the statue itself and reflect upon their own beliefs. As day transitions into night, this photograph reminds us that faith is constant even amidst changing times. It serves as a reminder that regardless of one's religion or background, there is something universally profound about witnessing such an iconic figure silhouetted against nature's beauty. Erik de Castro has captured more than just an image; he has encapsulated a moment filled with reverence and awe-inspiring wonder. This print invites viewers to contemplate their own spirituality while appreciating both natural beauty and man-made artistry.
