EDITORS COMMENTS
In the enchanting twilight of an African wetland, a mesmerizing scene unfolds as Etienne Steenkamp captures the breathtaking moment of skimmers in formation. The sun, casting a warm golden glow over the serene water, sets the stage for this avian ballet. Skimmers, with their distinctive long, slender wings and flat, shallow bodies, are expertly adapted for skimming the water's surface to catch their prey. In this image, they gracefully glide in a synchronized dance, their wings barely skimming the surface as they search for food. The reflection of the setting sun on the water adds an ethereal quality to the photograph, creating a stunning contrast between light and dark. The birds' vibrant plumage stands out against the mirror-like reflection, making each one a captivating focal point. The formation of these skimmers is a testament to their social nature and their incredible ability to fly in tight formations. Their synchronous movements create a mesmerizing display, as if choreographed by nature itself. Etienne Steenkamp's masterful photography captures the essence of this moment, allowing us to witness the beauty and grace of these birds in their natural habitat. The image invites us to pause and appreciate the intricacies of the natural world, reminding us of the magic that lies in the simplest of moments. This photograph is a true celebration of the natural world and the wonders that can be found in the most unexpected places. It is a reminder of the importance of preserving these delicate ecosystems and the creatures that call them home.
