EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Godong/Robert Harding, we witness a powerful moment of devotion and faith. The image showcases a large group of worshippers gathered outside the Basilica during Pope Benedict XVI's visit to Lourdes in Hautes Pyrenees, France. The atmosphere is electric as the crowd eagerly awaits the presence of their spiritual leader. Illuminated by candlelight, the scene exudes an ethereal beauty that adds to the sense of reverence and solemnity. The soft glow from countless candles creates a mesmerizing visual spectacle against the backdrop of nightfall. As each individual holds their lit candle, they symbolize not only their personal connection with Catholicism but also their unity as part of a larger community bound together by shared beliefs. This special occasion serves as a reminder that religion has the power to bring people together regardless of language or nationality. The Basilica stands tall and majestic, serving as both a place of worship and pilgrimage for believers from all corners of Europe. Its grandeur reflects centuries-old traditions and architectural brilliance while providing solace and inspiration to those seeking spiritual guidance. This photograph captures an extraordinary religious ceremony where worshippers gather under one roof to express their devotion through prayer, song, and silent contemplation. It encapsulates the essence of Lourdes - a sacred destination renowned for its healing waters and profound spiritual experiences. Through this remarkable image, Godong/Robert Harding invites us into this world where faith transcends boundaries and unites individuals in pursuit of something greater
