EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Luis Robayo, we are transported to the Canaveralejo bullring in Cali, Colombia. The image showcases a breathtaking moment during a recortadores bullfight on December 21,2014. The recortadores bullfight is an ancient tradition deeply rooted in Colombian culture. It differs from traditional bullfights as there are no capes or swords involved and the bulls are not killed. Instead, brave men test their agility and courage by attempting to dodge the charging bull with nothing but their own skill and quick reflexes. As we gaze at this extraordinary scene frozen in time, our eyes are drawn to a man defying gravity as he leaps over the powerful beast. Every muscle in his body seems taut with anticipation as he executes this daring maneuver. The intensity of the moment is palpable; it's a true testament to human bravery and resilience. Robayo's expert composition captures every detail flawlessly - from the dust kicked up by the charging bull's hooves to the expressions of awe on spectators' faces lining the stands. This photograph serves as a reminder of Colombia's rich cultural heritage and its ability to preserve ancient traditions that have stood the test of time. Through this single frame, Robayo encapsulates both danger and beauty, showcasing an art form that pushes boundaries while respecting animal welfare. It invites us into a world where adrenaline rushes meet age-old customs – leaving us captivated by its sheer spectacle.
