EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we witness the ancient practice of fire cupping being performed on a curious tourist in Can Tho, Vietnam. The image captures the essence of traditional medicine and alternative therapy in Southeast Asia. The photograph showcases a waist-up view of the tourist, who is willingly participating in this unique experience. Two men are engaged in the process - one expertly maneuvering flaming cups over the skin while the other observes with great care. The intensity of their focus is evident as they carry out this centuries-old custom. Vietnam's rich cultural heritage shines through as we delve into this scene. The vibrant colors and contemporary setting add a modern touch to an age-old tradition that has been passed down through generations. It serves as a reminder that even amidst globalization, customs like these continue to thrive and attract visitors from around the world. This image not only offers insight into Vietnamese culture but also highlights health and beauty practices that have stood the test of time. Fire cupping remains popular for its potential therapeutic benefits, making it an intriguing subject for both locals and tourists seeking alternative forms of healing. Andrew McConnell/Robert Harding's photography skillfully captures this moment, allowing us to appreciate both its aesthetic appeal and cultural significance within Asia's diverse landscape.
