EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo, taken on the outskirts of Havana, we witness a pig being showered with refreshing water in its enclosure. The image captures a moment of tranquility and care for this domesticated animal amidst the Cuban countryside. The composition is strikingly simple yet powerful. A single pig stands in profile, its wet body glistening under the sunlight. Water droplets hang suspended in mid-air, frozen in time like tiny diamonds. The splash from the spray creates an ethereal effect, adding to the overall sense of serenity. This photograph beautifully showcases the harmonious relationship between humans and animals within their shared environment. It serves as a reminder that even mundane tasks such as showering can be transformed into moments of creativity and connection with nature. Desmond Boylan's keen eye for detail allows us to appreciate every aspect of this scene – from the texture of the pig's skin to each individual water droplet captured by his lens. Through his skillful photography, he invites us to pause and reflect on our own interactions with animals and how we can contribute positively to their well-being. Overall, this image encapsulates both simplicity and beauty while highlighting our responsibility towards nurturing wildlife around us.
