EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of tradition and spirituality in Myanmar's ancient city of Bagan. In the foreground, a group of pilgrims from rural areas can be seen with their bullock carts, parked amidst the serene grounds surrounding Ananda Pahto, also known as the Temple of Ananda. The image transports us to a time when customs and rituals were deeply ingrained in everyday life. The festival atmosphere is palpable as people gather for the Ananda festival, an important religious event celebrated annually at this sacred site. Amidst vibrant colors and bustling activity, one cannot help but notice a teenage boy standing near his family's cart. His curious gaze reflects both wonderment and reverence for this spiritual occasion. Bagan itself is a travel destination like no other; its landscape dotted with over 2,000 ancient temples that have stood for centuries. This photograph encapsulates not only the beauty of Bagan but also showcases how contemporary life intertwines seamlessly with age-old traditions. Jane Sweeney/Robert Harding has masterfully captured this moment in time through her lens, allowing viewers to immerse themselves in the rich tapestry of Myanmar's cultural heritage. Whether you are drawn to photography or simply fascinated by different cultures, this print serves as a visual testament to humanity's enduring quest for faith and connection with something greater than ourselves.
