EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo, two graceful swans are beautifully silhouetted against the icy surface of Lake Orankesee in Berlin. Taken on a cold winter day, the image captures the essence of nature's contrasting elements - the delicate birds standing out against the frozen expanse. The composition is strikingly artistic, with the swans' elegant forms mirrored by their shadows cast upon the ice. The aerial view adds depth to the scene, showcasing how these wild animals navigate their environment from above. The stillness of the frozen lake is reflected in both air and water, creating a serene atmosphere that contrasts with the dynamic presence of these majestic creatures. Their stark white feathers stand out against a backdrop of dark shadows and icy textures. This photograph serves as a reminder of nature's resilience during harsh winters. It highlights not only its beauty but also its ability to adapt to extreme weather conditions. With no people in sight, it allows us to appreciate wildlife undisturbed in their natural habitat. Hannibal Hanschke's creative use of light and shadow brings this image to life, capturing a moment frozen in time – an exquisite portrayal of winter's enchantment on Lake Orankesee.
