EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo, we witness a sacred moment as a rooster is bestowed with a divine blessing by a priest on the day of Saint Anthony. The vibrant colors and intricate details of the scene transport us to Xochimilco in Mexico City, where tradition and spirituality intertwine. The rooster stands proudly on its perch, its majestic feathers shimmering in shades of orange. With its beak held high, it seems to understand the significance of this ritualistic act. The priest, dressed in his religious garments, extends his hand towards the bird with reverence and devotion. Surrounded by nature's beauty, this snapshot captures not only the physical connection between man and animal but also their spiritual bond. It symbolizes the deep-rooted belief that animals are an integral part of our lives - companions who deserve love and protection. As we gaze at this image, we can almost feel the depth of field drawing us into this sacred ceremony. The copy space around them allows for contemplation and reflection upon our own relationship with nature and religion. Carlos Jasso's skillful composition invites us to ponder upon faith and traditions while highlighting the creative use of photography as a medium for storytelling. This photograph encapsulates both cultural heritage and universal themes that resonate across borders – reminding us all to cherish every living creature around us.
