EDITORS COMMENTS
This coloured print captures the serene beauty of a Greater Horse-shoe Bat, Rhinolophus ferrum-equinum, peacefully asleep in a cave. The image showcases the intricate details of this remarkable creature as it rests undisturbed in its natural habitat. Taken by W. J. Stokoe, an acclaimed photographer from the early 20th century, this photograph was featured in the renowned book "Animal Life of the British Isles" by Edward Step. With 111 plates from photographs included in this publication, Stokoe's work stands out with its vibrant colours and exceptional composition. The bat's graceful form is highlighted against the backdrop of the dimly lit cave, creating a striking contrast between light and shadow. Its wings are delicately folded around its body as it enters a state of deep slumber. This image not only showcases the beauty of nature but also provides insight into these fascinating creatures' behavior. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing scene, we are reminded of our connection to wildlife and our responsibility to protect their habitats. It serves as a reminder that even amidst chaos and noise, there is tranquility to be found within nature's embrace. This historical photograph transports us back in time while simultaneously reminding us of our duty to preserve such wonders for future generations to appreciate and cherish.
