EDITORS COMMENTS
In this image captured by Navesh Chitrakar, the Bagmati River is transformed into a river of light as oil lamps offered by devotees illuminate its flowing waters. The mesmerizing scene takes place within the premises of the Pashupatinath Temple during the Bala Chaturdashi festival in Kathmandu, Nepal. The night sky serves as a dramatic backdrop for this spiritual spectacle, with lightning streaking across it and adding an element of mystery to the atmosphere. The temple's architecture stands tall and majestic, providing a striking contrast against the dark urban cityscape. This creative use of lighting showcases both faith and devotion as worshippers come together to celebrate their religious rituals. Through long exposure photography, Chitrakar captures not only the physical beauty of traditional oil lamps but also their symbolic significance in Nepalese culture. The absence of people in this photograph allows viewers to focus solely on the illuminated river and architectural marvels surrounding it. It reminds us that religion can bring communities together in moments of celebration and worship while highlighting how ancient traditions continue to thrive amidst modernity. Chitrakar's lens transports us into a world where spirituality meets creativity, leaving us captivated by this breathtaking display of illumination along one of Nepal's most revered rivers.
