EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph, five Roanoke logperch fish (Percina rex) gracefully swim against a backdrop of sleek, black water. This vulnerable (IUCN) and federally endangered species is native to the eastern United States, specifically in the waters of Tennessee and Virginia. The adult Roanoke logperch, with its distinctive orange-red lateral stripe and speckled body, is shown alongside its smaller, more translucent juveniles. This studio portrait, taken at Conservation Fisheries in Knoxville, Tennessee, offers a rare and intimate glimpse into the world of these elusive freshwater creatures. The side view, through the clear glass of the aquarium, allows us to appreciate the exquisite details of their scales and fin structures as they swim in unison at the surface level. The Roanoke logperch is a vital part of the aquatic ecosystem in the southern Appalachian Mountains, and its population has been declining due to habitat loss, pollution, and competition with non-native species. This image serves as a poignant reminder of the importance of conservation efforts to protect and preserve this beautiful and endangered species. The horizontal composition of the photograph, with its rich colors and vibrant hues, invites the viewer to explore the intricate details of these fascinating animals. The monochromatic black background emphasizes the vivid colors and patterns of the Roanoke logperch, making for a striking and visually appealing image. This photograph is a testament to the beauty and fragility of nature and the importance of preserving the world's endangered species. It is a powerful reminder of the role we all play in ensuring the survival of these precious creatures for future generations.
