Cathedral of Basil the Blessed, Moscow, Russia by vadim19
Cathedral of Basil the Blessed, Moscow, Russia / WORLD HERITAGE SITE / The Cathedral of Intercession of Theotokos on the Moat (Russian: Собор Покрова пресвятой Богородицы, что на Рву), popularly known as the Cathedral of Basil the Blessed, is a Russian Orthodox cathedral erected on the Red Square in Moscow in 1555–1561. Built on the order of Ivan IV of Russia to commemorate the capture of Kazan and Astrakhan, it marks the geometric center of the city and the hub of its growth since the 14th century. / The building’s design, shaped as a flame of a bonfire rising into the sky,[6] has no analogues in Russian architecture: “It is like no other Russian building. Nothing similar can be found in the entire millenium of Byzantine tradition from the fifth to fifteenth century… a strangeness that astonishes by its unexpectedness, complexity and dazzling interleaving of the manifold details of its design.” The cathedral foreshadowed the climax of Russian national architecture in the 17th century but has never been reproduced directly. /

Dawn of Happiness by Tatum Wulff
Sitting Buddha statue in the Sukhothai Historical Park in northern Thailand. / Sukhothai literally means – Dawn of Happiness The Historic Town of Sukhothai and Associated Historic Towns is on the UNESCO World Heritage List. Sukhothai was the capital of the first Kingdom of Siam in the 13th and 14th centuries. It has a number of fine monuments, illustrating the beginnings of Thai architecture. The great civilization which evolved in the Kingdom of Sukhothai absorbed numerous influences and ancient local traditions; the rapid assimilation of all these elements forged what is known as the ‘Sukhothai style’.

Magdalen by Katia Honour
Ramakrisna would embarrass his disciples by getting out of carriages to worship the feet of prostitutes as the Divine mother taking on the lust of unsatisfied men in holy, healing work. Jesus saw the humility of Magdalen and revealed the sinners to be equally the customers and condemners. Mary Magdalen inspires me with her self-possessed sexuality which can teach the feminine mysteries…to share intimate love and acceptance. She is depicted cleansing in solitude in the morning reclaiming herSelf . To me, her Divinity is her humility, so I have shown her on her knees, while utterly sovereign unto herself. She does not appear in classic Christian saint cards, so I hoped to paint her in that iconic style. Oil on canvas – 35cm x 45cm available for sale

Kannon Bosatsu by micpowell
The above is the Japanese name for this Buddhist Deity who is called the more difficult to pronounce Avalokitesvana in Sanskrit. Currently the depiction is commonly female but can also be male and represent compassion and mercy. Thus the literal translations are suggestive of watchful listening or the one who sees all in the former case and the Lord who regards all in the latter. This stewart is said to witness the prayers and cries of all cough in the difficulties of the earthly realm and to hold back on her own full Enlightenment to aid others achieve. Erstwhile Kannon is said to be the active manifestation of Amida Buddha, and in turn Daruma the father of Zen and the Dalai Lama are manifestations of her! This figurine is under 5 inches in height which I bought some time ago from a Tibetan Gift Shop. Hence my motivation now is that I’ve bought a macro filter and new Canon 430EX II flash, that I couldn’t wait to try out! Shot with a Canon 5D Mark II and a flash sync for the aperture!

Serenity by Simon Whittaker
Captured with Canon 5Dmk2 and 100m prime at f2 1/1250 ISO100. This delightful and serene man often sits reading his text, I have wanted to photograph him a number of times but can’t carry my gear with me whilst at work. He can’t speak english but nodded and posed when I showed him my camera. The thing that struck me about this gentleman was the serene aura he had about him – I hope the photo conveys a sense of that to you.

Sarabhati by micpowell
Sometimes spelt Saravathi, this is another 5 inch figurine and Compassionate Deity, and she can easily be construed as Kannon because of the Lotus Flower and earthly flames of chaos in the background, however this is a Tibetan model.
