EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the enchanting beauty of Costa Rica's nature, showcasing a mesmerizing blue morpho butterfly. Taken on 24 November 2007 at the butterflies observatory of La Paz Waterfall Gardens, this wildlife refuge in the province of Sarapiqui serves as a sanctuary for various animal species located approximately 70 kilometers north from San Jose. The image showcases the delicate wingspan and vibrant colors of the blue morpho butterfly, gracefully perched on a flower. Its iridescent blue hues are truly breathtaking, contrasting against the lush greenery surrounding it. This photograph not only highlights the intricate details of this magnificent creature but also emphasizes its importance within Costa Rica's diverse ecosystem. Furthermore, this particular aviary acts as a safe haven for wild birds that have been unlawfully captured by hunters and subsequently confiscated by authorities. It stands as a testament to conservation efforts aimed at protecting these vulnerable creatures and preserving their natural habitats. Photographed by Yuri Cortez from Agence France-Presse (AFP), this square-shaped vertical print beautifully encapsulates both the elegance and fragility of nature's wonders. Whether displayed in homes or offices, it serves as a constant reminder to appreciate and protect our planet's incredible biodiversity.
