EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Russell Cheyne, we are transported to the enchanting woodlands of Pitlochry, Scotland. Against a backdrop of vibrant autumn foliage, a red squirrel busily goes about its daily routine - stockpiling walnuts for the upcoming winter months. With its fiery red fur contrasting beautifully against the earthy tones of its surroundings, this charming creature showcases both grace and determination as it meticulously gathers and hoards nature's bounty. The image captures a moment frozen in time, where the squirrel's tiny paws delicately hold each walnut before carefully placing it amongst an already impressive stash. Pitlochry serves as the perfect setting for such an intimate glimpse into wildlife behavior. Known for its picturesque landscapes and rich biodiversity, this Scottish town offers sanctuary to various species including these charismatic red squirrels. As they prepare for colder days ahead, their instinctual drive to gather food becomes evident in scenes like this one. Cheyne's skillful composition allows us to appreciate not only the beauty of nature but also highlights our responsibility towards preserving delicate ecosystems that support such remarkable creatures. Through his lens, he invites us to reflect on our own relationship with nature and encourages us to cherish these small wonders that often go unnoticed in our busy lives. This photograph is a testament to both Cheyne's talent as a photographer and the awe-inspiring resilience found within Mother Nature herself.
