EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we are presented with a rare and breathtaking sight - an albino Southern Right whale gracefully gliding through the crystal-clear waters of the Atlantic Sea. This magnificent creature, known as ballena franca austral in Spanish, was captured near El Doradillo beach in Argentina's Patagonia region on June 9th, 2015. The Valdes Peninsula in Golfo Nuevo serves as a sanctuary for these majestic whales during their breeding and calving season from June to December. It is within this marine reserve that they find solace and safety to nurture their young ones. The image showcases the sheer beauty and ethereal presence of this albino Southern Right whale against the backdrop of an endless ocean horizon. Its pure white skin stands out vividly against the deep blue hues surrounding it, creating a mesmerizing contrast. Photographer Maxi Jonas has skillfully captured this momentous encounter between human observers and nature's marvels. The photograph not only highlights the gracefulness of these gentle giants but also reminds us of our responsibility to protect and preserve such precious creatures. As we gaze upon this awe-inspiring image, let us be reminded of the wonders that lie beneath our oceans' surface - mysteries waiting to be explored and cherished for generations to come.
