EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Christopher Gable and Sally Gable from Universal Images Group (UIG), we are transported to the enchanting landscapes of South Africa. The image showcases a majestic Goliath Heron gracefully standing in the shallow waters of a watering hole, surrounded by an eerie scene of dead tree trunks and branches. The immense beauty and tranquility of nature are perfectly encapsulated in this photograph. The heron's elegant stance exudes confidence as it patiently waits for its next meal. Its long legs, characteristic of wading birds, allow it to navigate effortlessly through the water with grace and precision. The juxtaposition between life and death is strikingly portrayed in this composition. While the heron symbolizes vitality with its vibrant plumage, the surrounding dead trees serve as a reminder of the cycle of life in nature – where new growth emerges from decay. This image not only captures a moment frozen in time but also invites us to reflect on our own connection with nature. It reminds us that even amidst desolation, there is always resilience and beauty waiting to be discovered. Christopher Gable and Sally Gable have masterfully captured both the serenity and drama present within South Africa's diverse ecosystems through their lens. This print serves as a testament to their skillful storytelling ability, allowing viewers to immerse themselves into this scene filled with wonderment and contemplation.
