EDITORS COMMENTS
Love is in the Air: A Gannet's Tale of Romance and Comedy". In this award-winning portrait captured by Ben Hall, we are transported to the magnificent Bass Rock in Scotland. The print showcases three Northern gannets, with one individual stealing the limelight while a courting pair takes center stage. With their striking blue background, these seabirds seem like they've stepped straight out of an artist's palette. Their vibrant yellow beaks add a pop of color that perfectly complements their surroundings. As we focus on the foreground, it becomes clear that love is in the air for these feathery friends. The courting pair engages in an adorable dance of courtship, expressing their affection through charming expressions and humorous gestures. It's as if they're putting on a show just for us! Meanwhile, our protagonist gazes up at them with a mix of curiosity and amusement. Is he offering advice or simply enjoying the spectacle? We can only imagine what thoughts are going through his mind. This whimsical photograph captures not just wildlife but also moments filled with joy and laughter. It reminds us that even in nature's most serene settings, there is always room for comedy and romance. So let this delightful image bring a smile to your face as you embark on your own journey into the enchanting world of gannets.
