Thai Mackerel Fishes by Ryszard Wierzbicki
Captured at a bustling market in Khanom in February 2019, this photograph highlights the iconic Thai Mackerel, a staple of local culture and cuisine. The photographer focuses on the characteristic bent heads of the fish, which are traditionally sold in pairs and serve as a symbolic element of daily life across Thailand. By documenting this common market sight, the image elevates a humble culinary subject into a compelling cultural study. The award-winning quality of the work lies in its ability to transform a routine street scene into a vibrant, authentic narrative that resonates with the essence of South-East Asian life.
