EDITORS COMMENTS
In this breathtaking print captured by Mike Blake, a flock of pelicans gracefully soar over a lifeguard tower as the sun sets in Carlsbad, California. The tranquil scene showcases the beauty of nature and its harmonious coexistence with man-made structures. As the golden rays of dusk paint the sky with warm hues, these majestic birds appear to be gliding effortlessly through the air, their wings outstretched in perfect symmetry. Against the backdrop of an orange-tinged horizon, their silhouettes create a striking contrast that is both serene and awe-inspiring. This image serves as a reminder of the delicate balance between humans and wildlife in our environment. It encapsulates how even amidst bustling coastal communities like Carlsbad, nature finds its place to thrive alongside human activity. The presence of the lifeguard tower symbolizes safety and protection for beachgoers while also serving as an unexpected perch for these magnificent creatures. The photographer's keen eye has frozen this fleeting moment in time, allowing us to appreciate not only the sheer beauty but also reflect on our role as stewards of our planet. This photograph evokes a sense of wonderment and tranquility that can transport viewers to this idyllic coastal setting—where pelicans dance across dusky skies—and encourages us all to cherish and preserve such natural wonders for generations to come.
