EDITORS COMMENTS
Captured in timeless black and white, this photograph transports us back to the year 1928 at London Zoo. Here we see a majestic male yak standing proudly in his paddock, exuding an air of strength and serenity. The image was expertly captured by Frederick William Bond, a renowned British photographer of his time. The monochromatic tones lend a sense of nostalgia to the scene, allowing us to appreciate the historical significance of this moment frozen in time. The yak's full-length stature dominates the frame, showcasing its impressive size and powerful presence. Its magnificent horns gracefully curve upwards, adding an element of elegance to its rugged appearance. As we observe this side view perspective, we are reminded of the diversity within our animal kingdom. Belonging to the bovidae family, yaks are hoofed mammals known for their resilience in harsh mountainous terrains. This particular specimen exemplifies all that is remarkable about these creatures - their adaptability and endurance. This photograph serves as a testament to both nature's beauty and mankind's fascination with it. It offers us a glimpse into London Zoo's rich history and dedication towards preserving diverse species from around the world. Through Bond's lens, we are transported back nearly a century ago, reminding us that even amidst constant change, there will always be moments worth capturing and cherishing.
