EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Vasily Fedosenko, the solemn beauty of All Saints Day is illuminated through a sea of flickering candles placed at graves in the village of Baruny, Belarus. The wide-angle shot allows us to take in the entire scene, as countless candles create a mesmerizing display against the night sky. The cemetery, nestled within an urban cityscape, becomes a place of deep reflection and reverence on this sacred day. The air is filled with an aura of faith and remembrance as each candle symbolizes a heartfelt tribute to those who have passed away. Fedosenko's creative use of lighting adds another layer to the composition, enhancing both the visual impact and emotional resonance. The warm glow from each candle casts delicate shadows across grave tombs, creating an ethereal atmosphere that invites contemplation and introspection. This traditional practice holds great significance for believers who gather here to honor their loved ones. As we gaze upon this image devoid of people but brimming with emotion, it serves as a poignant reminder that even in death, memories endure and love transcends time. Through his lens, Fedosenko captures not only a moment frozen in time but also the enduring power of faith and memorialization. This photograph stands as a testament to our universal need for connection with those who came before us—a reverie that unites us all under one shared sky.
