EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the beauty and mystery of a glacial erratic on the island of Coll in Scotland. Perched delicately on the flank of Ben Hogh, this massive rock has been left stranded in its current position, defying gravity as it balances atop three small rocks. The island of Coll, located in Argyll & Bute, provides a stunning backdrop for this geological wonder. The image showcases the raw power and force of glaciers that once dominated these lands. As ice sheets moved across the landscape thousands of years ago, they carried enormous boulders with them. This particular glacial erratic stands as a testament to their journey, an enigmatic relic from a distant past. Photographer David Williams skillfully captures every detail and texture of this remarkable formation. The ruggedness of the hillside and mountain range adds to the sense of awe evoked by this natural phenomenon. This photograph transports viewers to another world - one where time seems suspended and nature's forces are laid bare. It serves as a reminder that our planet is constantly changing and evolving, shaped by both subtle processes over millennia and cataclysmic events that shape entire landscapes. Intriguingly beautiful yet humbling in its presence, this glacial erratic invites us to contemplate our place within Earth's grand tapestry while marveling at its enduring resilience against all odds.
