## Caption

A horse rides through a bonfire during the traditional 'Las Luminarias' Festival in San Bartolome de Pinares, #Spain. In honor of Saint Antony the Abbot, the patron saint of animals, #horses are riden through bonfires on the eve of the official day of honoring animals in Spain. The #tradition, which is hundreds of years old, is meant to purify and protect the animals for the year ahead | 📷: Pablo Blazquez Dominguez | #GettyImagesNews #Luminarias
