EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, the serene ambiance of Wat Phan Tao Temple in Chiang Mai, Thailand is beautifully captured as monks come together to celebrate Loy Krathong. The festival, traditionally a vibrant and joyous occasion, takes on a more sombre tone as it coincides with the mourning period for King Bhumibol. The scene depicts an intimate ceremony filled with reverence and reflection. Monks can be seen lighting candles that flicker gently in the darkness, casting a soft glow on their faces. Sky lanterns rise gracefully into the night sky, symbolizing prayers and wishes being sent heavenward. This year's Loy Krathong festivities have been scaled back across Thailand out of respect for the late king. Instead of focusing on grand spectacles and merriment, devotees have turned their attention towards the religious aspects of the festival. It is a poignant reminder of how deeply ingrained Buddhism is within Thai culture. Photographer Paul Brown has masterfully captured both the tranquility and significance of this momentous event at Wat Phan Tao Temple. Through his lens, we are transported to this sacred space where spirituality intertwines with tradition. This mesmerizing print serves as a visual testament to loyalty and devotion while honoring both past traditions and present circumstances during Loy Krathong in Chiang Mai.
