EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print by Frank Greenaway, we are granted a glimpse into the world of the Female Great Crested Newt (Triturus cristatus) as she diligently tends to her precious eggs underwater. With a blue background that accentuates the vibrant colors of this amphibian, our attention is drawn to the intricate details of her behavior. The female newt can be seen in profile, delicately gluing a leaf into position around her eggs. This act serves as an essential form of protection for her offspring, creating a safe and secure environment amidst their watery surroundings. The motion captured in this image showcases both grace and determination as she meticulously arranges each leaf with precision. This full-frame composition allows us to focus solely on this remarkable creature and highlights animal themes such as beginnings and maternal instincts. Without any human presence, we are reminded of nature's beauty and resilience in its purest form. The Female Great Crested Newt is an extraordinary species known for its unique appearance and fascinating behaviors. As one animal among many within its habitat, it symbolizes the diversity and wonder found within our natural world. Frank Greenaway's skillful photography immortalizes this momentous occasion, offering us an opportunity to appreciate the wonders that lie beneath the surface of our planet's waters.
