EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Thomas Mukoya, we witness the beauty and vulnerability of an endangered female high mountain gorilla from the Sabyinyo family. The image transports us to the lush forest within Volcanoes National Park near Kinigi, northwestern Rwanda. It is here that this magnificent creature finds solace as she indulges in a meal on a serene January day in 2018. With a close-up view, we can appreciate every detail of her leafy feast as she delicately consumes it with utmost focus. The contrast between her black fur and the vibrant greenery surrounding her creates a striking visual impact that highlights both her strength and fragility. This solitary moment allows us to reflect on the importance of preserving our natural environment and protecting these incredible creatures from extinction. As an African native, this gorilla represents not only its own species but also symbolizes the rich biodiversity found across this continent. The photograph serves as a reminder of how interconnected all living beings are within their ecosystems. Through creative use of light and composition, Mukoya captures not only hunger but also resilience in the eyes of this primate. This image stands as testament to nature's enduring beauty while urging us to take action for conservation efforts worldwide.
