21st Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Natural World
Mirror of the Soul
While visiting Stonehenge with my family, I photographed this Carrion Crow (Corvus corone) that got incredibly close to me, allowing me to detail his eye. As a metaphorical “mirror of the crow’s soul”, this eye serves as a window to the crows’ environment, personality, and intelligence. (As I hope you can see, my mother, my brother, and I are featured right inside the eye’s reflection).
