EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Chris Wattie, we witness the sheer beauty and resilience of a skater gliding gracefully on the frozen Rideau Canal in Ottawa, Ontario. The frigid temperature of -21 degrees Celsius (-5.8 degrees Fahrenheit) sets an icy backdrop for this breathtaking scene. As the skater carves their way across the glistening ice, a striking shadow follows their every move. This silhouette adds depth and intrigue to the image, emphasizing both the solitude and determination of this brave individual braving extreme weather conditions for their love of skating. The Rideau Canal itself holds great significance as it transforms into a 7.8-kilometer (4.8-mile) long natural ice rink during winter months, attracting locals and tourists alike who eagerly embrace Canada's favorite pastime – ice-skating. It is not only a recreational hotspot but also recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage site due to its historical importance. Wattie's photograph encapsulates more than just an ordinary winter activity; it captures the spirit of adventure and passion that resides within Canadians even amidst freezing temperatures. It serves as a testament to our ability to find joy in challenging circumstances while showcasing nature's remarkable ability to create stunning landscapes out of seemingly harsh conditions. This print is not merely an image frozen in time; it is an invitation for us all to appreciate both our own shadows and those moments when we truly come alive against all odds.
