EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Denis Sinyakov, a man is seen leaving a church after an Orthodox Easter night mass in the settlement of Roshcha, located 100 km south-west of Moscow. The image was taken with a long exposure technique, resulting in a mesmerizing streak of light created by the man's torch. The low angle view emphasizes the grandeur and magnificence of the Eastern Orthodox temple against the backdrop of darkness. The half-light illuminates the architectural details and highlights the silhouette of the religious building, creating a striking contrast between light and shadow. The town's urban cityscape adds to the overall ambiance, as it merges with tradition and history represented by this historic site. The black color dominates most elements in this composition while hints of orange and yellow add warmth to its atmosphere. This photograph beautifully captures both tranquility and spirituality as it showcases an unrecognizable figure immersed in his faith journey. It serves as a reminder that religion can bring solace even amidst uncertainty or obscurity. Denis Sinyakov's creative use of long exposure photography allows us to witness this moment frozen in time, inviting viewers to contemplate their own spiritual connection within such awe-inspiring surroundings.
