EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print by Philippe Lissac from Universal Images Group (UIG), we are transported into the serene world of spirituality and faith. The image showcases a 22-year old dervish named Myrteza Shehu, deep in prayer at the Melani tekke in Albania. As he stands with closed eyes and uplifted hands, his devotion is palpable, emanating a sense of tranquility that transcends the boundaries of religion. The composition beautifully captures the essence of Islamic mysticism, known as Sufism, where individuals seek spiritual enlightenment through inner reflection and connection with God. The soft lighting within the tekke adds an ethereal quality to the scene, enhancing its mystical ambiance. Myrteza's youthful face reflects both determination and surrender as he engages in this sacred act. His presence reminds us that spirituality knows no age or societal boundaries; it is a deeply personal journey that can be embarked upon by anyone seeking solace and purpose. This photograph serves as a powerful reminder of the diversity within religious practices across Europe. It invites viewers to appreciate different cultures while recognizing our shared human desire for something greater than ourselves. As we gaze upon this image, we are invited to reflect on our own beliefs and contemplate how faith can bring peace amidst life's challenges. Through Lissac's lens, we witness not only one man's devotion but also an invitation to explore our own spiritual paths - regardless of religious affiliation - fostering understanding and unity among all people who seek meaning
