EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Patrick Hertzog, the exhilarating world of motor rallying comes to life. French driver Jean-Louis Schlesser fearlessly maneuvers his powerful Megane-Schlesser car through the vast desert of Mauritania during the eleventh stage of the 23rd Paris-Dakar motor Rally. As he speeds past a herd of dromedaries, their majestic presence juxtaposed against the ruggedness of the terrain creates a truly remarkable sight. The image perfectly encapsulates the essence of offbeat sport action, showcasing both man and machine in perfect harmony with nature's wonders. The intensity on Schlesser's face is palpable as he strives for victory, pushing himself to reach new limits amidst this challenging environment. Although placing 10th in this particular stage, Schlesser's overall standing in the car section remains impressive as he holds fourth place. This photograph serves as a testament to his unwavering determination and skill behind the wheel. Hertzog's expert composition allows us to feel like we are right there in that moment, experiencing firsthand the adrenaline-fueled excitement that accompanies such an extraordinary event. It reminds us that even within seemingly desolate landscapes, incredible feats can be achieved when passion and perseverance collide.
