Unwavering focus: From the Basset Hound with Outstretched Ears to the Chess Players, concentration takes many forms. Whether it's a Polar bear rolling in the snow or three jockeys racing for victory, these images capture the essence of intense determination. A snooker player strategizes at the table while two majestic Leonbergers exhibit unwavering attention. In a quaint pub, men engage in an age-old game of shove-halfpenny, their minds fixed on precision. Meanwhile, a teenage gymnast defies gravity on rings against a stark black backdrop, showcasing his disciplined practice. On Full Moon Island in Maldives, amidst serene yoga meditation under moonlit skies, concentration reaches new heights. Even a mountain lion prowling through Montana's snowy terrain demonstrates its focused prowess. Lastly, we witness a portrait of a blacksmith immersed in his craft in Axum - dedication etched onto every movement. These Bristol Uni students exemplify how concentration fuels success across diverse pursuits.
