at 50mm, 1/6 f/5.6, ISO 3200, hand held. Jerusalem, Israel.

Location: Chiesa del Santo Sepolcro, Pietra dell'unzione. E' questa la pietra su cui, si dice, sia stato composto il corpo di Gesù per prepararlo per la sepoltura: è difficilissimo raccontare a parole, e lo è ancora di più farlo fotograficamente, le scene a cui è possibile assistere fermandosi qualche minuto davanti a questa reliquia. E' emozionantissimo vedere persone che si gettano, letteralmente, sulla pietra rimanendo immobili in preghiera, altre che, invece, "strofinano" velocemente e con energia le loro sciarpe sulla pietra stessa, chi prega gridando e chi fa la stessa cosa cantando. Spero di essere riuscito con questa mia immagine, scattata con molta discrezione e non senza difficoltà tecniche, a rendere, anche solo in minima parte, l'atmosfera mistica del luogo e l'emozione che si prova ad essere lì presente. E così inizio questo 2023 con una foto che è sicuramente molto distante da quello che è il mio genere fotografico, fatto di immagini semplici e molto colorate, ma che cerca di descrivere un momento che mi ha particolarmente colpito, uno stato d'animo, dovuto alla misticità del luogo ed alla devozione, quasi esasperata, dei fedeli.

Hello Paul ;-)
For me it is quite simple to understand what you felt and how much you show us in this beautiful shot ....... not at all easy to perform ;-) I
spent some time in Israel for work and during my free time I visited Jerusalem... Bethlehem... etc.etc..
Although I am a non-believer...... or at least not in the God invented by man .... I was very impressed exactly as you describe in the caption
I have a deep respect for those who believe ..... but unfortunately religion...... in many cases...... instead of uniting people he sets them against each other
In Israel I saw scenes that were not at all beautiful and there was a climate of tension that was felt everywhere I
apologize if I could not explain myself well
However your image followed by the caption I find it very touching
Congratulations ;-)

From a technical point of view the two side people form a sort of frame for the person prostrate on the stone, their movement gives dynamism and contrasts with the static nature of the faithful in white, the bright colors alternating with pastel ones are very beautiful.
From the point of view of content, the "tension" of the moment is breathed and the mystical atmosphere emerges with arrogance. A strong and significant shot, it almost seems to be there and to hear the songs and cries of prayer. It's the kind of photos that I prefer and this one is very well done.
Congratulations Paul, thanks also for the caption.
greetings
Fabio

Beautiful moment, which tells that act of faith that is prayer. Colors always play an important role in your creations

With this shot you have made very well the atmosphere of the sacred place, the movement of the figures emphasizes the profession of faith of those present.
Best regards, Rosary
