EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the vibrant spirit of Brazil's Rio Carnival as members of the Bate Bola street carnival band take to the streets in a dazzling display of color and energy. The Bate-Bola, known as ball-slammer, is a traditional character that can be found primarily in the north and west areas of Rio de Janeiro during this festive season. Dressed in clown-inspired costumes, these revellers roam around with decorated umbrellas or a ball attached to a stick, creating an atmosphere filled with excitement and anticipation. As they hit the ground with their unique instruments, a resounding noise echoes through the air, adding to the infectious rhythm that permeates every corner of this grand celebration. The photograph beautifully captures not only the intricate details of their elaborate costumes but also showcases their exuberant movements as they dance along with fellow parade participants. With each step they take, it becomes evident that this is more than just a performance; it is an expression of joy and unity. Photographer Yasuyoshi Chiba skillfully freezes this moment in time, allowing viewers to immerse themselves in the magic and spectacle that defines Rio Carnival. From topshots capturing all angles to horizontal compositions showcasing every aspect of this enchanting event – Chiba's lens transports us into a world where music fills our ears and colors ignite our senses. As we gaze upon this extraordinary image captured by Agence France-Presse (AFP), we are reminded once again why Rio Carnival remains one of Brazil's most cherished cultural
