EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Jitendra Prakash, we are transported to the bustling streets of Allahabad, a northern Indian city. The image showcases a vibrant roadside shop adorned with an unexpected yet striking subject - a magnificent rooster. Standing tall and proud, the rooster exudes an air of confidence as it gazes into the distance. The juxtaposition of this majestic creature against the backdrop of everyday life in Allahabad is both intriguing and thought-provoking. It serves as a reminder that beauty can be found in the most unexpected places, even amidst the chaos and commotion of urban existence. Beyond its aesthetic appeal, however, this photograph also carries deeper significance. Taken on January 15th, 2008, during a time when India was grappling with an outbreak of bird flu in West Bengal, it highlights the delicate balance between nature and human interaction. The government's confirmation that the H5N1 strain had infected poultry adds another layer to our understanding of this image. Jitendra Prakash's skillful composition not only captures a visually stunning moment but also prompts us to reflect on our relationship with animals and their impact on public health. Through his lens, he invites us to appreciate both the beauty and complexity present within our shared environment.
