EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the grandeur of the church of the Savior on Spilled Blood in Saint Petersburg, Russia. The low angle view emphasizes its towering presence against a backdrop of clear blue skies. As the host city for the 2018 FIFA World Cup, this iconic landmark stands as a testament to both Russian history and Eastern Orthodox Christianity. The intricate architecture and historic significance of this religious building are beautifully showcased in Henry Romero's creative use of composition. With no people present, the focus is solely on the magnificent structure itself. The image perfectly encapsulates an urban cityscape with a touch of serenity that comes from its religious connotations. The vibrant colors and flawless details highlight every aspect of this remarkable piece of architecture. From afar, one can admire its ornate domes and elaborate façade while appreciating its harmonious integration into an ever-evolving environment.
