EDITORS COMMENTS
In this iconic print captured by Colorsport Images, we witness the awe-inspiring moment when Jonah Lomu, the legendary New Zealand rugby player, performs the Haka during the 1999 World Cup semi-final. The image encapsulates both power and grace as Lomu stands tall on Twickenham's hallowed ground in England. As one of rugby union's most dominant figures, Lomu's imposing physique is matched only by his fierce determination. With eyes fixed ahead and muscles tensed, he channels centuries of Maori tradition into this ancestral war dance. The intensity emanating from his face sends shivers down your spine while simultaneously commanding respect from all who bear witness. This particular match against France was a pivotal moment in rugby history. Despite Lomu's extraordinary performance - scoring two tries that day - New Zealand fell short with a final score of 41-31 to their opponents. However, it was moments like these that solidified Lomu's status as an icon within the sport. Andrew Cowie skillfully captures every nuance of this scene through his lens. His expert composition allows us to feel as if we are standing alongside fellow spectators at Twickenham Stadium, witnessing firsthand the sheer force and passion exuded by Jonah Lomu. This print serves not only as a testament to one man's indelible impact on rugby but also as a reminder of how sports can transcend boundaries and ignite emotions within fans worldwide.
