EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the iconic vermillion coloured floating torii gate at Itsuku-shima Shrine, a UNESCO World Heritage Site located in Miyajima, Honshu, Japan. The image beautifully captures the balance between tradition and reflection that is traditionally associated with Japanese culture. The vibrant color of the gate stands out against the serene water, creating an ornate and visually stunning scene. The torii gate is a symbol of spirituality in Shinto religion and its reflection in the water adds to its ethereal beauty. This vertical composition perfectly encapsulates the essence of this place of worship, highlighting its significance as a national landmark and one of Japan's most sought-after travel destinations. The long exposure technique used by photographers Gavin Hellier/Robert Harding enhances the tranquility and serenity surrounding this traditional site. As a UNESCO World Heritage Site, it represents not only Japan's rich cultural heritage but also serves as a testament to humanity's shared history. With no one visible in the frame, this photograph allows viewers to immerse themselves fully into this typically Japanese landscape. The orange colour palette evokes feelings of warmth and invites us to explore further into this enchanting world heritage site. Overall, this print captures both the grandeur and delicate beauty that make Itsuku-shima Shrine such an extraordinary place within Japanese culture.
