This traditional culture game started about several hundred years ago. Initially, it was an activity for farmers after finishing their rice harvest in the paddies. The attraction has now become a cultural heritage event in Tanah Datar, Padang, in West Sumatra.
For this shot, I used a Canon EOS 7D and Canon zoom lens 70-200 f/4l USM. I waited until the cows came into frame, and the mud splash was a great bonus, giving the image motion. The lighting was really great at that time, and the sun shone perfectly. I love this ‘action sports’ photo as I can feel the dynamic movement with the perfect lighting. – David Wirawan
