EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Stephane Mahe, we are presented with a mesmerizing general view of people dotting the beach in Saint Malo, western France. The image showcases a unique moment during a record low tide on March 21,2015. As towns along France's North Atlantic coast prepared for their first giant tide of the millennium, individuals flocked to the shore to dig for shellfish. The composition beautifully captures the essence of coastal life as unrecognizable figures engage in this traditional activity. Against an expansive backdrop of air, sky, and water, buildings stand tall in the distance adding depth to the scene. Creative use of perspective allows us to observe from above and witness multiple clusters of people scattered across the sandy beach. As sunlight pierces through fluffy clouds and casts radiant sun rays upon the environment, nature's beauty is fully revealed. This stunning display perfectly complements the tranquil atmosphere created by low tide. Stephane Mahe skillfully encapsulates both human interaction with nature and our innate connection to it. Through this photograph, we are reminded of how weather patterns can shape our daily lives while also providing opportunities for communities to come together and appreciate their surroundings.
