EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures the serene beauty of a pair of Whooper Swans gracefully gliding across Lake Kussharo in Hokkaido, Japan. The icy landscape and snow-covered mountains provide a breathtaking backdrop for these majestic birds. The Whooper Swan, scientifically known as Cygnus cygnus, is native to East Asia and is renowned for its elegance and grace. In this image, their pure white feathers stand out against the frozen lake, creating a striking contrast that highlights their natural beauty. As they glide through the calm waters, their reflections create a mirror-like effect that adds depth and tranquility to the composition. The photographer's skillful use of horizontal framing enhances the sense of serenity conveyed by this scene. Hokkaido's harsh winter climate provides an ideal habitat for these wildfowl species. Despite the cold temperatures, these resilient creatures thrive in this environment with their thick plumage keeping them warm. This photograph by Guy Edwardes showcases not only the incredible diversity of birdlife in Asia but also serves as a reminder of nature's ability to adapt and flourish even in extreme conditions. It invites viewers to appreciate the delicate balance between wildlife and its surroundings while marveling at Mother Nature's awe-inspiring creations.
