EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by REUTERS photographer Susana Vera, the annual Saint Anthony purification ceremony in the village of San Bartolome de los Pinares near Avila comes to life. The image showcases a fearless man riding his horse through roaring flames, symbolizing an age-old tradition that takes place on January 16th every year. The festival coincides with the eve of the religious festivity of Saint Anthony, who is revered as the patron saint of animals. As per custom, participants partake in this ritual to purify their beloved horses using fire and smoke after receiving blessings from a priest. This extraordinary act demonstrates both faith and reverence towards these magnificent creatures. The photograph encapsulates a moment frozen in time - an awe-inspiring display of courage and devotion. Against a backdrop of darkness illuminated by flickering flames, sparks dance around the brave rider and his majestic steed. The intensity of their expressions reveals determination amidst danger as they navigate through the fiery path unscathed. This powerful visual narrative not only captures a unique cultural event but also serves as a reminder of humanity's deep connection with nature and its creatures. It invites viewers to contemplate traditions that have endured over generations while celebrating our shared bond with animals. (REUTERS/Susana Vera)
