EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Adnan Abidi, we are transported to the banks of the river Yamuna in New Delhi. The image showcases a mesmerizing sight as a mahout gracefully rides his majestic elephant against the backdrop of a clear blue sky and fluffy white clouds. The low angle view adds an element of grandeur to the scene, emphasizing the sheer size and power of these incredible creatures. The silhouette of both man and animal creates an enchanting contrast against the vibrant hues of nature. As we gaze at this photograph, we can't help but feel a sense of awe for both human and beast alike. The bond between them is palpable, with each relying on one another for guidance and companionship. This image not only captures a moment frozen in time but also serves as a reminder of our connection to nature. It reminds us that despite living in bustling cities like New Delhi, there are still pockets where traditional ways intertwine with modern life. Adnan Abidi's skillful composition allows us to appreciate every detail - from the swaying tail to the gentle movement through water - making it impossible not to be drawn into this serene scene. This photograph truly encapsulates India's rich cultural heritage while showcasing its harmonious relationship with wildlife.
