EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo captured by Bobby Yip, we witness a surprising encounter in the bustling city of Hong Kong. A snake, seeking refuge or perhaps feeling threatened, retreats into a drawer at a store specializing in snake soup. The image was taken on January 15,2004. For centuries, Chinese culture has embraced the consumption of snakes as a delicacy believed to enhance one's health. This unique culinary tradition is deeply rooted in their history and continues to be practiced today. The photograph offers an intriguing glimpse into the coexistence of nature and urban life within Hong Kong. It serves as a reminder that even amidst the concrete jungle, wildlife can still find its way into unexpected places. Bobby Yip's skillful composition captures both the surprise and curiosity surrounding this unusual incident. The contrast between the sleek serpent slithering away and the familiar setting of everyday commerce creates an atmosphere filled with intrigue. This thought-provoking image prompts us to reflect on our relationship with nature and how it intertwines with our daily lives. It invites us to appreciate not only the diversity found within different cultures but also within our shared environment. Through his lens, Bobby Yip presents us with an extraordinary moment frozen in time – reminding us that beauty and wonder can be found even in unexpected encounters like this one.
