EDITORS COMMENTS
In this powerful image captured by Corinna Kern, a worshipper is seen deep in prayer during the Good Friday procession at the Church of the Holy Sepulchre in Jerusalem's Old City. The photograph beautifully portrays the essence of faith and devotion as the individual engages in a religious ceremony. The close-up shot allows us to witness an intimate moment, with the unrecognizable worshipper's hand clasped tightly together in prayer. The creative use of depth of field adds a touch of artistry to the composition, drawing our attention to their hands forming a cross shape – symbolizing their unwavering belief. Surrounded by real people engaged in worship, this image captures not only an individual's connection with God but also highlights how religion brings communities together. The view from above provides a unique perspective, allowing us to appreciate the grandeur and cultural significance of this sacred space. As we observe this scene on Good Friday – one of Christianity's most solemn days commemorating Jesus' crucifixion – it serves as a reminder that faith knows no boundaries or denominations. Whether Eastern Orthodox or Catholic, worshippers come together united by their shared beliefs and reverence for religious books like those held nearby. Corinna Kern has masterfully encapsulated both spirituality and culture within this single frame, leaving room for reflection on Easter’s profound meaning while celebrating diversity through her lens.
