EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by EyeUbiquitous, we are transported to the mesmerizing Xinjiang Province in China. The image showcases a vibrant cultural tradition of the Kazakh tribal people - an exhilarating horseback race known as Kuuz Kuu or Catch the Girl. Amidst breathtaking landscapes and under a sky painted with hues of gold, we witness a thrilling chase between a young boy and girl. As per tradition, if the boy successfully catches the girl, he earns himself a sweet reward - an affectionate kiss. The energy is palpable as both participants display remarkable horsemanship skills while navigating through rugged terrains. The girl holds her whip firmly, ready to defend herself from being caught by her pursuer. Meanwhile, determination fuels the boy's every move as he strives to win not only the race but also his prize. This photograph beautifully captures not just an exciting moment but also sheds light on the rich ethnic diversity found in Asia. It serves as a reminder of how traditions like these continue to thrive amidst modernity, preserving ancient customs that define communities and strengthen their bonds. EyeUbiquitous has masterfully frozen this fleeting moment in time for us to appreciate and marvel at this unique celebration of culture and human connection.
