EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Bruno Morandi/Robert Harding, we are transported to the banks of the Bani River in Sofara, Mali. The image showcases a mesmerizing scene of Peul men skillfully guiding their herds of cattle across the flowing river during transhumance. The vibrant colors and horizontal composition draw our eyes towards the dynamic movement taking place on both land and water. The men, dressed in traditional attire, exude strength and resilience as they navigate through the rushing currents with their loyal companions - the cattle. This photograph not only captures a moment of migration but also offers us a glimpse into the rich agricultural practices that have sustained communities in West Africa for centuries. It is a testament to how people and animals harmoniously coexist within nature's rhythm. As we observe this remarkable display of travel and unity between humans and animals, we cannot help but be reminded of Africa's vast landscapes and its deep connection to its heritage. This image serves as an invitation for us to explore these remote destinations where cultures thrive amidst breathtaking scenery. Through his lens, Bruno Morandi/Robert Harding has immortalized this timeless tradition that continues to shape lives along rivers like Bani. It is an ode to those who rely on nature's resources for survival while reminding us all about the importance of preserving such unique ways of life for generations to come.
