EDITORS COMMENTS
This print by Michael Wood captures a mesmerizing moment in the underwater world of Florida's Suwannee River inlet. A magnificent West Indian manatee gracefully rolls over upside down, showcasing its relaxed nature as it swims through the crystal-clear waters. The reflection of sunlight creates a stunning play of sunrays on the surface, illuminating the entire scene. As this gentle giant navigates through its habitat, a school of sunfish follows closely behind, adding an extra touch of beauty to the composition. The image showcases not only the majestic presence of these sea cows but also their vulnerability as endangered species. The calm and shallow river provides an ideal setting for this aquatic marvel to thrive. Its full-length view allows us to appreciate every detail and texture on its sleek body. This photograph perfectly encapsulates the essence of wildlife photography – capturing animals in their natural habitat with precision and artistry. Wood's skillful use of color brings out alluring hues that enhance our connection with nature. With no human presence in sight, we are invited into a serene world where manatees reign supreme. This print is a testament to both the beauty and fragility of our planet's diverse ecosystems - reminding us to cherish and protect these remarkable creatures for generations to come.
