EDITORS COMMENTS
This print by James O. Davies transports us to the mystical landscape of Silbury Hill in Avebury, Wiltshire. The image captures a general view of this remarkable Neolithic monument, shrouded in an ethereal mist and surrounded by water. The reflection on the calm surface adds an enchanting touch to the already atmospheric scene. Silbury Hill stands as a testament to our ancient ancestors' ingenuity and craftsmanship during the Stone Age. As a designated World Heritage Site, it holds immense historical significance and continues to intrigue archaeologists and visitors alike. The photograph's composition exudes an ominous aura, emphasizing the magnitude of this prehistoric earthwork rising from the ground. Its sheer size is awe-inspiring against the backdrop of winter's cold embrace. James O. Davies masterfully captures not only the physicality but also the essence of Silbury Hill through his lens. The play between light and shadow creates a sense of mystery that invites contemplation about its purpose and symbolism. This print serves as a reminder that even after thousands of years, these ancient structures continue to inspire wonderment within us. It encourages us to appreciate our rich heritage while igniting curiosity about those who came before us.
