EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Toby Melville, we witness the enchanting beauty of a frosty morning in Richmond Park, south-west London. The image showcases a majestic male deer barking during the rutting season, as if announcing its presence to the world. Richmond Park holds a rich history dating back to 1637 when it was first enclosed as a deer park by King Charles I of Britain. Today, approximately 650 fallow and red deer roam freely within its boundaries, creating an awe-inspiring sight for visitors. The photograph perfectly encapsulates the essence of winter with temperatures plummeting to lows of minus eight degrees Celsius (17.6 degrees Fahrenheit) in Redhill, located in southern England. The cold spell serves as a reminder that nature's seasons are changing and winter is upon us. Melville's expertly composed shot captures not only the raw power and elegance of this magnificent creature but also highlights the delicate frost clinging to every blade of grass and branch nearby. It transports viewers into this serene moment where time seems frozen amidst nature's icy embrace. This print serves as both a visual feast for wildlife enthusiasts and a gentle reminder that even on freezing mornings, there is still beauty to be found in our surroundings if we take the time to appreciate it.
