EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this click, we witness a fascinating glimpse into the past as nature's storytellers reveal themselves on the shores of Van Keulenfjord. The remnants of an era long gone, these beluga whale bones stand tall, silently narrating tales of Norwegian whalers from yesteryears. As if posing for a historical snapshot, these skeletal remains create a mesmerizing sight against the Arctic backdrop. Nature's architects have artfully arranged them in a picturesque pile, showcasing their resilience even after decades of resting beneath the waves. With each bone whispering secrets and mysteries untold, one can't help but imagine the grandeur and might that once belonged to these majestic creatures. Their presence serves as a poignant reminder of our shared history with marine life and the delicate balance between human industry and wildlife preservation. Photographed by Steve Kazlowski during a summer expedition to Svalbard Archipelago, this image captures not only the physical remains but also sparks curiosity about humanity's impact on Earth's delicate ecosystems. It invites us to reflect upon our responsibility towards protecting and cherishing all living beings that call our planet home. So let your imagination dive deep into this enchanting photograph – where ancient bones meet modern minds – reminding us that every picture tells its own unique tale!
