EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of Diwali festival in Udaipur, Rajasthan, India. In this image, two street children are dressed in the vibrant style of Krishna, one of Hinduism's most revered deities. Despite their challenging circumstances as beggars, these young souls embrace the festive spirit with grace and innocence. The girl and boy stand side by side, their eyes fixed on the camera with a mixture of curiosity and hope. Their colorful costumes reflect the joyous atmosphere surrounding them during this auspicious time. Adorned with intricate facial decorations and traditional make-up, they embody the cultural richness that permeates every corner of India. As visitors flock to temples to seek blessings during Diwali festivities, these children extend their hands for alms. Their presence serves as a poignant reminder of both poverty's harsh reality and humanity's capacity for resilience amidst adversity. Annie Owen/Robert Harding skillfully captures this moment through her lens, showcasing not only the beauty but also the social complexities found within Indian society. This vertical composition allows us to fully appreciate each detail - from the expressive faces to their meticulously crafted costumes. Through this photograph, we are transported into a world where tradition meets hardship; where festivals bring people together despite economic disparities. It is an invitation to contemplate our own roles in creating a more equitable future while celebrating diversity and embracing compassion towards those less fortunate than ourselves.
