EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a rare moment in time at the London Zoo, October 1920. In this mid-shot image, we see a young albino Opossum peering curiously out of a basket. The photographer, Frederick William Bond, skillfully captures the innocence and vulnerability of this unique marsupial. The contrast between the dark background and the pale fur of the opossum creates an ethereal atmosphere that draws us into its world. Its side view allows us to appreciate every delicate feature - from its tiny paws to its pointed snout. This little creature seems almost otherworldly in its beauty. As we gaze upon this historical photograph, we are reminded of the importance of preserving our natural heritage. The Zoological Society of London played a vital role in protecting these magnificent creatures for future generations to admire and study. It is fascinating to think about how much has changed since this photo was taken over a century ago. Yet, some things remain constant - like our fascination with nature's wonders and our desire to understand them better through photography. Let this image serve as a reminder that even in the bustling cityscape of London, there is room for wildlife appreciation and conservation efforts. As we peer into those curious eyes, we cannot help but feel connected to all living beings on this planet – regardless of their size or coloration.
