EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by John MACDOUGALL from Agence France-Presse (AFP), we are transported to the serene world of Berlins Zoologischer Garten Zoo. As temperatures soared past 30 degrees Celsius, a playful seal seeks solace in its refreshing pond. The image beautifully illustrates the resilience and adaptability of these remarkable creatures, as they gracefully navigate their watery domain. The composition is strikingly horizontal, allowing us to fully appreciate the seal's elegant form against the backdrop of shimmering water. Its sleek body glistens under the warm sunlight, while ripples created by its graceful movements add a touch of dynamism to the scene. This offbeat moment captures our attention and reminds us of nature's ability to surprise and delight even in unexpected places like a bustling zoo. The seal's content expression seems almost human-like, conveying a sense of pure joy as it indulges in this aquatic haven amidst scorching heat. John MACDOUGALL skillfully encapsulates not only the physicality but also the emotional essence of this enchanting encounter. Through his lens, he invites us into an intimate connection with wildlife and encourages us to appreciate their natural habitats that zoos strive to recreate for educational purposes. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing photograph print, we are reminded that beauty can be found even in seemingly ordinary moments – if only we take a moment to pause and truly see it.
