EDITORS COMMENTS
This aerial view captures the essence of a thrilling amateur horse race on the ice-covered Yenisei River near Novosyolovo, Russia. The image showcases a Russian Troika, a traditional sledge drawn by three horses, gracefully gliding across the frozen terrain during the annual Ice Derby. Taken by Ilya Naymushin, this photograph beautifully portrays the sheer power and elegance of these magnificent creatures as they compete in this exhilarating event. The composition is truly remarkable, with the troika leaving behind distinct tracks on the snow-covered ground. The horses' hooves create an intricate pattern that adds to the overall visual appeal of this image. Against a backdrop of rural landscapes and surrounded by nature's wintry beauty, their silhouettes stand out against the white canvas. From above, we witness both man and animal united in their pursuit of victory amidst challenging weather conditions. This snapshot freezes time for us to marvel at this unique cultural tradition while highlighting our harmonious coexistence with domesticated animals. Naymushin's creative use of perspective allows us to appreciate every detail from an elevated viewpoint. It serves as a reminder that even in remote corners of our world, people come together to celebrate shared passions and embrace nature's wonders.
