EDITORS COMMENTS
A sacred union amidst the vibrant hues of Varanasi. This print captures a marriage ceremony taking place on the banks of the revered Ganges River in Varanasi, India. The city, also known as Banaras or Benares, is steeped in rich traditions and holds immense religious significance for Hindus. In this enchanting scene, we witness the convergence of colors, costumes, and customs that make Indian weddings truly remarkable. Women adorned in exquisite traditional attire gather around the couple with joyful smiles and heartfelt blessings. The air is filled with an atmosphere of friendship and camaraderie as friends celebrate this auspicious occasion. The Ganges River serves as a backdrop to this divine celebration, its tranquil waters reflecting not only the beauty of the moment but also centuries-old beliefs and rituals associated with Hinduism. As one of India's holiest pilgrimage sites, Varanasi attracts devotees from all over who seek spiritual solace along its ghats (steps leading down to the river). Mauricio Abreu skillfully captures both the grandeur and intimacy of this matrimonial feast through his lens. With boats gently gliding by on colorful waves and feasts being prepared nearby, it encapsulates a snapshot into a world where tradition seamlessly intertwines with modernity. This awe-inspiring photograph transports us to a land where love is celebrated amidst ancient customs against an ethereal backdrop – reminding us that moments like these are what make travel destinations like Varanasi truly extraordinary.
