EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print by Ilya Naymushin, we are transported to the serene Siberian village of Balakhta in Russia. Against a backdrop of lush green fields and an overcast sky, two cows peacefully graze next to an Orthodox cross. The cross stands tall and proud, symbolizing the deep-rooted religious beliefs that permeate the region. The composition of the image is strikingly beautiful - with one cow positioned on either side of the cross, creating a perfect balance within the frame. The stone cross itself is intricately designed, its arms forming a distinct shape against the cloudy sky. As we gaze at this scene captured during springtime, we can almost feel nature's gentle embrace. The trees sway softly in the breeze while fluffy clouds float overhead. It seems as though even these farm animals appreciate their surroundings as they look directly into Naymushin's camera lens. This photograph not only showcases the beauty found in nature but also highlights how religion intertwines with everyday life in this remote corner of Russia. It serves as a reminder that even amidst vast landscapes and changing seasons, faith remains steadfast - just like these cows grazing near an Orthodox cross in Balakhta.
