EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print by Cris Toala Olivares, the frozen beauty of nature is on full display. Shells, once scattered across the sandy shores near the island of Schiermonnikoog in the Netherlands, are now suspended in ice. The image captures a moment frozen in time, where delicate shells become trapped within a glistening blue icy prison. The photograph showcases an unrecognizable exterior as the shells blend seamlessly with their icy surroundings. The creative use of nature's elements highlights both its power and fragility. As snow blankets the beach and water transforms into solid ice, it becomes evident that winter has cast its spell upon this coastal landscape. Although devoid of people or any visible footprints, one can imagine individuals braving these dangerous conditions to witness such a remarkable sight firsthand. The vast expanse of untouched sand soil serves as a reminder that even amidst freezing temperatures and harsh weather conditions, nature continues to thrive. Cris Toala Olivares' lens captures not just a single shell but multiple ones encapsulated by ice—a testament to the resilience and adaptability found within our natural world. This image invites us to contemplate how something as simple as a shell can transform into an exquisite work of art when embraced by winter's touch.
