EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Ilya Naymushin, we are transported to the Siberian city of Krasnoyarsk in Russia during Orthodox Christmas celebrations. As night falls and snow blankets the urban landscape, a crowd gathers to witness an awe-inspiring display of fireworks illuminating the sky. The low angle view allows us to feel as if we are among the spectators, gazing up in wonderment at the explosive bursts of light. The scene is filled with a sense of festive cheer and religious significance, as people come together to celebrate this important cultural event. Despite the freezing cold and frosty weather, their spirits remain high as they embrace both nature's icy beauty and their own traditions. Silhouetted against the backdrop of a Christmas tree adorned with sparkling decorations, these real people become part of a larger tapestry that symbolizes unity and joy. The long exposure technique used by Naymushin creates streaks of light that dance across the photograph like shooting stars frozen in time. This image serves as a reminder not only of our collective human capacity for celebration but also our ability to find beauty even in harsh environments. It captures a moment where culture meets nature, religion intertwines with tradition, and individuals come together under one starry winter sky.
