EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Anuwar Hazarika, a skilled worker is seen meticulously preparing a makeshift cottage known as "Bhelaghara" in anticipation of the upcoming Magh Bihu festival. The Bhelaghara, constructed using bamboo and straw, stands proudly against the backdrop of Morigaon district in Assam, India. The image showcases the true essence of craftsmanship and creativity as the artisan skillfully constructs this temporary structure. With an unrecognizable figure working diligently on its exterior, we are reminded of the dedication and effort put into celebrating Hindu festivals like Magh Bihu. As we gaze at this picture-perfect scene, our eyes are drawn to the vast expanse of open sky above. The air feels charged with excitement as people prepare to celebrate amidst nature's beauty. A lone tree stands tall nearby, providing shade and adding to the serene environment. This photograph not only captures a moment in time but also serves as a symbol of religious devotion and cultural heritage. It reminds us that festivals hold immense significance in bringing communities together to honor their traditions. Anuwar Hazarika's lens has beautifully encapsulated both human ingenuity and Mother Nature's splendor within one frame. As we admire this stunning visual representation, we can't help but appreciate how artistry intertwines with religion during such festive occasions.
