EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Shamil Zhumatov, we witness a breathtaking moment during an annual hunters competition at Almaty hippodrome in Kazakhstan. The image showcases the powerful bond between man and nature as a hunter releases his tamed golden eagle into the vast open sky. The sheer beauty of this scene lies in the juxtaposition of freedom and captivity. As the majestic bird spreads its wings, it symbolizes not only its own liberation but also the untamed spirit that resides within us all. With feathers glistening under the sunlight, every detail is brought to life, highlighting the intricate cooperation between predator and human. The unrecognizable hunter stands tall with safety gloves on his hand, showcasing both respect for this magnificent creature and an understanding of its dangerous potential. Together they embark on a journey through air and space, reminding us of our connection to nature's wonders. This photograph serves as a reminder of our responsibility towards preserving our environment and protecting these incredible creatures that grace our skies. It invites us to appreciate their existence while urging us to ensure their continued survival. With ample copy space surrounding them, we are encouraged to reflect upon this harmonious display of trust and companionship against a backdrop of untouched nature. Through creative use of body parts and real people engaged in genuine moments like these, Shamil Zhumatov has masterfully captured a snapshot that will forever inspire awe in those who lay eyes upon it.
