EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the serene beauty of Bhuddist prayer houses nestled in the mountainous area near Paro, Eastern Bhutan. As local people embark on their annual trek up the mountains to the Dzongs for festivals, they find solace and respite at rest stops along the way. In this well-watered valley, surrounded by a majestic mountain range that belongs to the Himalayas, these small temples (Dzongs) offer a chance for weary travelers to pause and rejuvenate. The image showcases not only the physical grandeur of temple buildings but also reflects upon the rich history and deep-rooted spirituality of Bhutanese culture. Buddhism plays an integral role in shaping this nation's identity, and these prayer houses serve as sacred spaces where devotees can connect with their faith. Photographed in 2015 by Southern Lightscapes-Australia, this color image transports viewers into a realm where religion meets nature's splendor. The vibrant hues of Asia come alive against a backdrop of towering peaks, creating an atmosphere that is both awe-inspiring and tranquil. While appreciating this remarkable photograph, one cannot help but be drawn into its narrative: locals resting amidst breathtaking surroundings while offering prayers within these humble abodes. It serves as a reminder that even in our fast-paced world, there are places where time slows down and spiritual contemplation finds its rightful place.
