EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the vibrant and enchanting atmosphere of a Chinese New Year celebration in a temple located in Phnom Penh, Cambodia. As the outside world fades away, this ritual takes place outdoors, allowing participants to connect with their spiritual beliefs amidst the aromatic scent of burning incense sticks. The close-up shot reveals the intricate details of this ceremonial act, where devotees seek purification through the rising smoke. The image showcases not only Cambodia's rich religious heritage but also its deep-rooted cultural ties to Indochina and Southeast Asia. In this snapshot, we witness both locals and visitors immersing themselves in this ancient tradition. The background people add depth to the scene as they engage in their own personal reflections or participate actively alongside others.
