EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Agence France-Presse (AFP), we witness the serene beauty of a surfer immersing himself in the vastness of the Atlantic Ocean at Praia da Macumba beach. The image, taken on August 5,2016, showcases the anticipation and excitement building up ahead of the Rio 2016 Olympic Games. As dawn breaks over Rio de Janeiro, casting an ethereal glow across the horizon, we are drawn to the silhouette of this courageous athlete against a backdrop painted with hues of orange and gold. The surfer's profile is highlighted by the soft light that filters through his figure, creating an impressionistic effect that adds depth and mystery to this breathtaking scene. This photograph not only captures a moment frozen in time but also symbolizes a significant milestone for sports enthusiasts worldwide. Surfing has been announced as one of five new sports for inclusion in future Olympic Games alongside skateboarding, climbing, karate, and baseball-softball. It represents a recognition of these exhilarating activities as legitimate athletic disciplines deserving global recognition. The documentation selection made by AFP allows us to appreciate both the technical skill involved in capturing such an awe-inspiring shot as well as its artistic value. This horizontal illustration transports us to another world where nature meets human determination and athleticism
