EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph, three red deer (Cervus elaphus) gracefully stand in silhouette against the backdrop of Ley Hill in Exmoor, Somerset. The sun has set, casting a warm, golden glow over the landscape, while the sky above transforms into a canvas of deep blues and purples as twilight takes hold. The red deer, with their distinctive, large antlers, are a common sight in the wild and open spaces of Exmoor, a region renowned for its natural beauty and abundant wildlife. The red deer is the largest species of deer found in Europe and is a symbol of the untamed, wild spirit of the countryside. Their antlers, which are shed and regrown annually, are a testament to their strength and power. In this image, the deer appear calm and serene, their silhouettes framed by the rolling hills and the fading light of the day. Exmoor, located in the southwest of England, is a place of history and natural wonder. The area has a rich cultural heritage, with evidence of human habitation dating back to prehistoric times. The red deer have roamed these lands for centuries, living in harmony with the changing seasons and the natural rhythms of the countryside. This photograph captures a moment of tranquility and beauty, a snapshot of the natural world as it exists in its raw, untamed state. The red deer, silhouetted against the darkening sky, are a reminder of the enduring power and majesty of nature, a force that continues to inspire and captivate us. The photograph, taken in the 20th century, is a testament to the rich history and natural beauty of Exmoor and the red deer that call it home. It is a reminder of the importance of preserving and protecting the natural world for future generations to enjoy.
