Two young Thai boys take part in a game of blindfold boxing (muay dtap jaak). It is much like the traditional sport of Muay Thai but the contestants are blindfolded. As they cannot see they have to use their other senses such as hearing in order to fight their opponent. The ground is covered with palm leaves and as they walk across it they make a rustling sound which the other fighter can hear. (ThaiPhotoBlogs/Richard Barrow)
