EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo, we see Maisy, a female koala bear, peacefully slumbering as she is introduced to the public for the very first time at the zoo in Zurich. Perched on a tree within her enclosure, Maisy exudes an air of tranquility and contentment. Her fluffy fur and adorable features make it impossible not to be captivated by her charm. The close-up shot allows us to appreciate every detail of Maisy's appearance - from her button-like nose and round ears to her delicate paws firmly gripping onto the tree branch. The creative use of copy space emphasizes the solitary nature of this wild animal, highlighting its natural habitat devoid of human interference. As we observe Maisy in deep slumber, it becomes evident that she has found solace amidst the bustling environment of a zoo. With no people around and only nature as her companion, she embraces a momentary respite from curiosity-seeking visitors. This image serves as a gentle reminder of our responsibility towards wildlife conservation. It encourages us to appreciate these beautiful creatures in their natural state while fostering an understanding that they too need moments of undisturbed rest. Through photographs like this one captured by Arnd Wiegmann, we are reminded that there is much beauty and serenity in observing animals simply being themselves – even when they're fast asleep!
