EDITORS COMMENTS
This print by James O. Davies transports us to the mystical landscape of Avebury, Wiltshire. Bathed in the soft glow of early morning light, Silbury Hill emerges as a majestic silhouette against the horizon. The remnants of a hard frost delicately blanket the foreground, adding an ethereal touch to this ancient site. Silbury Hill stands as a testament to our Neolithic ancestors and their remarkable engineering prowess. This monumental earthwork, dating back thousands of years, holds secrets that continue to intrigue archaeologists and historians alike. As we gaze upon its orange-hued slopes, we are reminded of the enduring legacy left behind by those who once roamed these lands during prehistoric times. Designated as a World Heritage Site, Silbury Hill is not merely an archaeological wonder but also a symbol of human ingenuity and connection with nature. Its sheer size and intricate construction serve as reminders that even in the Stone Age, mankind possessed an innate desire to shape their environment. James O. Davies skillfully captures both the grandeur and subtleties within this photograph - from the coldness conveyed through frozen grasses in the foreground to the warm hues illuminating Silbury Hill itself. Through his lens, he invites us on a visual journey into history; one where time seems suspended amidst this timeless monument.
