EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating print that captures a moment of profound spirituality amidst the vastness of the desert landscape. The image, captured by artist Charles JS Makin, transports us to a time when travel was an arduous journey across continents. In this side view composition, we see two men kneeling on the sand dunes, their profiles silhouetted against the setting sun. They are engaged in prayer, their heads bowed in reverence as they worship. A sense of peace emanates from their serene expressions and humble postures. The presence of camels nearby adds an element of authenticity to this scene. These majestic animals have been faithful companions throughout long journeys across deserts for centuries. Their inclusion highlights both the geographical features and cultural significance associated with these regions. This monochrome print not only showcases Makin's artistic prowess but also serves as a testament to religious devotion and its ability to transcend time and place. It invites contemplation on themes such as faith, spirituality, and human connection with nature. As we gaze upon this print from "With Pen and Camera in Three Continents" we are reminded of our own spiritual journeys - seeking solace amidst life's challenges or finding harmony within ourselves through prayer. It is a powerful reminder that even in remote corners of the world, people come together under one sky to find solace in something greater than themselves – be it religion or simply witnessing nature's awe-inspiring beauty at sunset.
