EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print by Paul Ellis, we witness a breathtaking natural phenomenon at the Martin Mere Wetlands Centre in north west England. As the sun sets on October 14,2015, thousands of pink-footed geese gracefully descend upon the wetlands to roost for the night. The sheer number of these magnificent birds is awe-inspiring; up to 40,000 can be seen at dawn and dusk during their winter stay in Great Britain. These geese embark on an incredible journey from Greenland and Iceland to seek refuge in the milder climate of Britain. Their arrival marks not only a spectacle for bird enthusiasts but also signifies nature's resilience and adaptability. The composition of this photograph perfectly captures the tranquility and serenity that envelops this scene. The vibrant hues of twilight paint a picturesque backdrop against which these elegant creatures find solace amidst their long migration. Paul Ellis skillfully portrays both the grandeur of nature and its delicate balance through his lens. This image serves as a reminder that our world is interconnected, with migratory patterns like those observed here playing an essential role in maintaining biodiversity across continents. As we gaze upon this remarkable sight frozen in time, let us appreciate the beauty found within our natural surroundings while recognizing our responsibility to protect it for generations to come.
