EDITORS COMMENTS
This print by Matt Parry captures the essence of Table Mountain in Cape Town, South Africa. Perched on top of this iconic landmark is a Rock Dassie, also known as a hyrax, basking in the African sun. The image showcases the beauty and diversity of wildlife found in this region. The vibrant colors of the photograph bring to life the natural surroundings, with hues that perfectly complement the rocky terrain. The horizontal composition allows for a panoramic view, emphasizing both the grandeur of Table Mountain and the adorable presence of this small mammal. With its alert gaze directed towards the camera lens, the Rock Dassie exudes an air of curiosity and confidence. Its eyes seem to convey a deep connection with its wild habitat while inviting viewers into its world. The elevated perspective provides a unique vantage point from which we can appreciate every detail – from intricate rock formations to subtle shadows cast upon them. This close-up shot highlights not only the dassie's features but also its adaptability to survive in such rugged conditions. As we admire this remarkable creature against one of nature's most impressive backdrops, it serves as a reminder that even amidst towering mountains and vast landscapes, there is always room for harmony between humans and animals.
