EDITORS COMMENTS
In this breathtaking print captured by Lisi Niesner, a herd of resilient sheep gracefully traverse a snow-covered field on their way up to the alpine pass Hochjoch. The autonomous region of South Tyrol in Italy sets the stage for this awe-inspiring scene, as these magnificent creatures navigate their way through the cold and harsh exterior of nature. The image showcases the sheer beauty and tranquility of this wintry landscape. The sunlight casts long shadows over the pristine white snow, creating a striking contrast against the dark stone formations scattered across the terrain. From an aerial view, we witness nature's creative use of light and shadow to paint an ethereal picture. These woolly mammals seem undeterred by the freezing temperatures as they make their journey towards higher altitudes. Their thick coats provide insulation from the chilly air, allowing them to brave even the harshest winter conditions with ease. As they walk in unison, it is evident that these animals are perfectly adapted to survive in such extreme environments. This photograph serves as a reminder of nature's resilience and its ability to thrive amidst adversity. It captures a moment frozen in time where man-made structures fade away, leaving only untouched wilderness behind. With no people present, we are left with an unobstructed view from above - a glimpse into Mother Nature's majestic canvas painted with pure serenity and untamed beauty.
