EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo, performers gather before a thrilling match at the annual Kings Cup Elephant Polo Tournament held in Bangkok, Thailand. The image captures the essence of tradition and culture as these talented individuals prepare to showcase their skills alongside majestic Asian elephants. The close-up shot highlights an unrecognizable performer's hand gracefully reaching out towards the elephant's trunk. This detailed interaction symbolizes a remarkable symbiosis between man and animal, showcasing their cooperative spirit and creative use of each other's body parts. The vibrant red color worn by the performers adds a touch of vibrancy against the natural backdrop of the riverside resort. The depth of field technique used in this photograph creates a stunning visual effect, with some elements deliberately out of focus while others remain sharp and clear. This snapshot perfectly encapsulates how people from different walks of life come together to celebrate nature, coexistence, and genuine human-animal connection. It serves as a reminder that events like these not only entertain but also promote respect for our environment and its incredible creatures. Soe Zeya Tun skillfully captures this moment in time through his lens, allowing us to appreciate both the beauty of traditional performances and the awe-inspiring presence of these magnificent elephants.
