EDITORS COMMENTS
. Step into the enchanting world of Mida Creek, where these magnificent red mangroves steal the show! Mark Boulton's captivating photo print, "MAB-139" transports us to the coastal wonderland near Watamu, Kenya. As far as the eye can see, a network of rhizophora mangle trees and shrubs create an evergreen spectacle along this tropical paradise. With their unique pneumatophores (aerial roots), these red mangroves strike a pose like no other. It's almost as if they're showing off their prop-like roots that gracefully emerge from the ground, creating a natural work of art. And let's not forget about those vibrant fruits adorning their branches – nature's very own ornaments! But there is more to these stunning trees than meets the eye. Acting as an intertidal buffer zone, they provide vital habitat for countless fish species who seek refuge in this underwater nursery. Their bark holds tannins that add character to this already picturesque scene. So come on down and witness East Africa’s finest mangrove group in action! With its dry arid surroundings contrasting against lush greenery, it’s truly a sight to behold. Let Mark Boulton’s masterpiece transport you to this African haven and immerse yourself in the beauty of our planet's diverse ecosystems - all through one incredible photograph!
