EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Mariana Bazo, we are transported to a National Forest and Wildlife Service (SERFOR) shelter in Lima, Peru. The image showcases a close-up of two turtles that have been rescued from illegal possession by Peruvian authorities. These majestic creatures find themselves in the safe haven of the shelter after enduring an unfortunate fate. The photograph beautifully captures the intricate details of the turtles' shells, highlighting their unique patterns and textures. With their mouths slightly open, these reptiles seem to be expressing both relief and curiosity as they adjust to their new environment. The composition is masterfully executed with creative use of depth of field, allowing us to focus on the turtles while keeping other elements out of focus. The absence of people emphasizes the significance of nature's role in protecting these vulnerable species. As we gaze at this powerful image, it serves as a reminder that our actions can greatly impact the natural world around us. It prompts us to reflect on our responsibility towards preserving and safeguarding these remarkable creatures who rely on us for their survival. Mariana Bazo's photograph not only captures a moment frozen in time but also conveys a profound message about conservation efforts and our collective duty to protect Earth's diverse wildlife.
