EDITORS COMMENTS
This print by Steve Jones showcases a close-up view of the underside of a Hawksbill sea turtle, adorned with barnacles, as it gracefully glides through the vibrant reefs of Raja Ampat in West Papua, Indonesia. The image beautifully captures the intricate details of this majestic reptile and its symbiotic relationship with the marine ecosystem. The stunning biodiversity of this tropical climate is evident in every pixel, as the hawksbill turtle navigates through crystal-clear waters against a backdrop of colorful coral formations.

As an endangered species, this hawksbill sea turtle symbolizes both the fragility and resilience of our planet's wildlife. This photograph serves as a powerful reminder to protect these remarkable creatures and their fragile habitats.
