EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print by Vasily Fedosenko, Catholics from Belarus and neighboring countries are seen carrying candles during the annual Icon of the Mother of God procession. The Budslav Fest, where this iconic event takes place, holds great cultural significance as it is listed as a UNESCO Cultural Heritage of Belarus. The image was captured using long exposure photography, resulting in a surreal and mesmerizing effect. The night sky serves as the backdrop for the procession, with each candle creating a beautiful light trail that adds an ethereal touch to the scene. With no people visible in the frame, the focus shifts entirely to the symbolic act of faith displayed through these flickering flames. The composition is creatively executed, making excellent use of copy space and showcasing a religious building in its imposing grandeur. The picturesque setting further enhances the atmospheric quality of this photograph; one can almost feel a sense of reverence and tranquility emanating from it. Vasily Fedosenko's artistic approach successfully captures not only an important religious event but also evokes emotions tied to spirituality and devotion. This image stands as a testament to both human faith and creative expression, reminding us of our capacity for profound connection with something greater than ourselves.
