EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Hannibal Hanschke, members of the Berliner Seehunde (Berlin Seals) ice swimmers club brave the freezing temperatures to take a refreshing dip in Lake Orankesee during their traditional New Year's swimming event. The image showcases an extraordinary scene where real people, unrecognizable due to their nude figures and clown-like expressions, immerse themselves in the icy waters of Berlin, Germany. The composition is filled with vibrant colors as the playful swimmers create ripples on the surface of the water. Their silhouettes against a wintry backdrop add an element of mystery and intrigue. Despite being surrounded by cold air and wave water, these daring individuals exhibit sheer joy and leisure as they embrace nature's challenging environment. This photograph beautifully captures both the physicality and creativity involved in ice swimming. With ample copy space around them, it allows viewers to appreciate not only their courage but also highlights how they find fun even in extreme conditions. It serves as a reminder that humans can adapt to any circumstance while finding ways to enjoy life's adventures. Hanschke's lens has successfully frozen this remarkable moment for eternity, showcasing a group united by their love for unconventional experiences. As we gaze upon this image, we are reminded of our own potential for resilience and exploration amidst even the harshest winters life may bring us.
