A dynamic image of nature: a kingfisher, resplendent in its iridescent plumage, breaks through the surface of a still body of water with impressive precision. Its body is a perfect arrow, flying precisely towards its target. The moment is frozen: the bird's beak is already clutching a wriggling fish whose fate has just been sealed.
The water, stirred up by the hunt, dances through the air in countless drops, like tiny gems catching the light of the sun. This snapshot symbolises the irrepressible elegance and toughness of nature.
The kingfisher epitomises beauty and precision in its movement, while the fish represents the fragility of life. It is an image that captures both the principle of 'eat and be eaten' and the harmony and cruelty of the life cycle in the animal kingdom. The frozen scene testifies to the power of the element of water, which is at once home, obstacle and stage for this dramatic scene.
