EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we are transported into the heart of a laboratory at a Florida Aquarium facility near Tampa, Florida. The image showcases the delicate beauty and intricate patterns created by polyps on a Colpophyllia natans, commonly known as Boulder Brain Coral. As the coral rests peacefully atop its skeletal base, it mesmerizes us with its vibrant colors and unique formations. However, beneath this enchanting facade lies an alarming reality. This particular species of coral is under grave threat from Stony Coral Tissue Loss Disease (SCTLD), which makes it highly susceptible to deterioration. The urgency to save these corals becomes palpable as we witness their fragile existence in this photograph. Photographer Lucas Jackson skillfully captures both the fragility and resilience of these underwater ecosystems through his lens. His work serves as a reminder that our actions have direct consequences on nature's wonders. "The Wider Image: The race to save the coral of the Caribbean" takes us beyond aesthetic appreciation and compels us to acknowledge our responsibility in preserving these invaluable treasures for future generations. It is a call to action for scientists, conservationists, and individuals alike to join forces in protecting our oceans' biodiversity before it's too late. This thought-provoking image invites viewers to delve deeper into understanding the challenges faced by marine life while igniting hope that concerted efforts can still make a difference in safeguarding our planet's most vulnerable ecosystems.
