EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this print by Andy Trowbridge, we witness a Puffin (Fratercula arctica) showcasing its impressive wing-span against the backdrop of a breathtaking late evening light on the Shetland Islands. The vibrant orange hues of the puffin's beak and feet add a pop of color to the serene landscape. With wings spread wide and high, this charismatic seabird appears to be practicing its aerial acrobatics or simply enjoying an invigorating stretch after a long day. Its patient demeanor suggests that it knows how to savor every moment in life. As we admire this portrait of grace and elegance, we can't help but feel a tinge of sadness mixed with admiration for these incredible creatures. They remind us that even amidst the tranquility of nature, there is always an underlying sense of waiting and patience. The moss-covered rocks surrounding our feathered friend create a perfect stage for its performance, while also highlighting the harmony between wildlife and their natural habitat. The close-up side view allows us to appreciate every intricate detail - from its webbed feet firmly planted on solid ground to each individual feather meticulously arranged on its majestic wings. So let this enchanting image transport you into nature's twilight symphony where puffins reign supreme as masters of flight. And remember: when life gets tough, just spread your wings and soar like our delightful Puffin friend!
