EDITORS COMMENTS
In the scorching heat of a London summer, a majestic pelican finds solace in St. James's Park. This print captures the essence of unity between nature and urban life as the pelican preens its feathers with grace and poise. The bird stands proudly on a stone perch, surrounded by shimmering water that reflects its elegant form. The creative use of composition allows for ample copy space, emphasizing the closeness to nature that this image evokes. With no people in sight, it is as if time has stood still for this solitary creature amidst bustling city life. The pelican's beak glistens under the warm sunlight, showcasing its vibrant plumage against a backdrop of lush greenery. Its presence serves as a reminder of the resilience and adaptability found within wildlife even during extreme weather conditions. This photograph encapsulates both serenity and strength, offering viewers an escape from their daily routines into a world where beauty can be found in unexpected places. Clodagh Kilcoyne's skillful lens captures not only an extraordinary moment but also invites us to appreciate the harmony between humans and animals coexisting peacefully in our shared environment.
