EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Vladimir Birgus, we are transported to the enchanting Hill of Crosses in Lithuania. As the lens focuses on a mesmerizing scene, men and women can be seen immersed in deep prayer before hundreds of crosses and crucifixes that adorn this ancient pilgrimage site near Siaulial. The image exudes an aura of spirituality and devotion as individuals from all walks of life come together to seek solace and find inner peace amidst this sacred landscape. Each cross stands tall, representing a heartfelt prayer or a profound connection with their faith. The Hill of Crosses holds immense historical significance for Lithuania, serving as a symbol of resilience against oppression throughout its tumultuous past. It is believed that the tradition of placing crosses began during times when Lithuanians were forbidden from openly practicing their religion under foreign rule. Vladimir Birgus skillfully captures the essence of this mystical place through his lens, allowing us to witness firsthand the power and beauty found within these humble acts of worship. This photograph serves as a reminder that even in our modern world, ancient traditions continue to thrive and provide comfort to those who seek it. As we gaze upon this remarkable print, we are reminded that faith has no boundaries – it transcends time, language, and culture – uniting humanity in moments like these at the Hill of Crosses.
