EDITORS COMMENTS
This print by Michael Runkel takes us on a journey to the mystical caves of Pindaya in Shan state, Myanmar. As we gaze upon the image, our eyes are immediately drawn to the gilded Buddha images that adorn the cave walls. The golden hue emanating from these statues creates an ethereal atmosphere, evoking a sense of tranquility and spirituality. The intricate details of each sculpture showcase the mastery of craftsmanship and devotion to Buddhism. These ancient relics stand as a testament to Myanmar's rich cultural heritage and its deep-rooted religious traditions. Stepping into this underground sanctuary feels like stepping back in time, immersing oneself in centuries-old history. The absence of people allows us to fully appreciate the grandeur and serenity of this sacred space. As we explore further into the depths of these caves, we can't help but feel a profound connection with those who came before us. This photograph serves as a reminder that even though time passes, faith endures. Runkel's skillful composition captures not only the physical beauty but also conveys a sense of reverence for these remarkable sculptures. It is through his lens that we are transported thousands of miles away, experiencing firsthand one of Asia's most enchanting travel destinations – Pindaya Cave.
