EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning underwater image captures the intricate details of a group of spawned out sockeye salmon in Quartz Creek, Kenai Peninsula, Alaska. The photograph, taken by Scott Dickerson, showcases the natural beauty and raw emotions associated with the end of these fish's life cycle. In this close-up shot, we witness the exhaustion and tiredness etched on their faces as they navigate through shallow waters. Their once vibrant red bodies have faded to a dull shade, symbolizing their journey nearing its end. Despite their weakened state, these mature adults continue to swim instinctively towards the surface. The split view allows us to appreciate both above and below water perspectives simultaneously. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing scene, it becomes evident that death is an integral part of nature's reproductive behavior. These salmon have fulfilled their purpose - spawning new life for future generations. Surrounded by majestic mountains and crystal-clear water, this image encapsulates the essence of summer in Alaska's Kenai Peninsula. It serves as a reminder that even in old age and exhaustion, wildlife continues to play a vital role in maintaining ecological balance. Scott Dickerson has masterfully captured not just a photograph but also an emotional narrative within this print. It invites viewers to contemplate the circle of life while appreciating the resilience and beauty found within every stage of existence
