EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print by Peter Barritt, we are transported to the enchanting steps leading up to the Swayambhunath Stupa, also known as the Monkey Temple, in Kathmandu, Nepal. This UNESCO World Heritage Site is not only a testament to ancient architecture but also serves as a gathering place for an unexpected community - monkeys. The image captures a unique moment of nature's beauty and harmony. A pair of monkeys can be seen engaged in grooming each other on one of the temple's steps. The intricate sculptures surrounding them add to the artistic allure of this scene. As we delve into this photograph, it becomes evident that these primates have found solace amidst human civilization. Their presence here symbolizes their adaptability and resilience in coexisting with mankind. The vibrant colors and horizontal composition emphasize the natural world merging seamlessly with man-made structures. It reminds us that even within urban landscapes, pockets of wilderness can thrive if given space and respect. Barritt's skillful photography transports us directly into this mesmerizing travel destination where art meets nature. Through his lens, we witness how animals effortlessly become part of our cultural heritage while maintaining their wild essence. This print is not just a visual delight; it encapsulates an entire narrative about symbiotic relationships between humans and wildlife in one frame.
