EDITORS COMMENTS
In this image captured at Prague Zoo, we are offered a close-up view of a Western lowland gorilla indulging in an unexpected treat - ice cream. The photograph, taken by David W Cerny, showcases the incredible depth of field and creative use of copy space to draw our attention to the magnificent mammal's expressive face. The gorilla's tongue is outstretched as it licks the refreshing dessert with evident delight. Its head is slightly tilted, revealing a sense of curiosity and intelligence that resonates with us humans. Against the backdrop of its natural environment, we witness this wild animal engaging in an activity that seems almost human-like. The replica rope hanging from above adds an element of playfulness to the scene, emphasizing both the primate's physical strength and its need for mental stimulation within its captive enclosure. There are no people present in this shot; instead, we are invited to focus solely on this mesmerizing creature and appreciate its beauty. Cerny's photograph serves as a reminder of our shared connection with nature and wildlife. It captures a fleeting moment frozen in time – one where boundaries between species blur momentarily as we witness a gorilla savoring something as simple yet delightful as ice cream.
