EDITORS COMMENTS
In this heartwarming photo, captured by Hugo Correia, we witness a breathtaking display of unity and compassion in the bustling city of Lisbon. The iconic Praca do Comercio becomes an ethereal landscape as thousands of candles flicker softly, illuminating the path for people walking through its enchanting glow. On December 17,2011, this scene unfolded as part of an extraordinary initiative led by Terra dos Sonhos (Land of Dreams), a non-governmental organization with a noble mission. With the aim to achieve a Guinness World Record, fifty thousand candles were meticulously placed throughout Lisbons downtown square. Each candle was sold at one euro ($1.30) to raise funds for children suffering from long and terminal illnesses - their dreams becoming the focus. As individuals strolled amidst this sea of light and hope, their presence symbolized solidarity with those battling illness. It is impossible not to be moved by the profound impact that such simple gestures can have on these young lives full of aspirations and challenges. Hugo Correias photograph captures both the visual spectacle and emotional resonance created by this remarkable event. The image serves as a reminder that even in our darkest moments, there are always rays of light waiting to guide us towards brighter tomorrows - reminding us all that dreams can come true when hearts unite for a greater cause.
