EDITORS COMMENTS
. Behold, a mesmerizing moment frozen in time! This print showcases FG-EB-733, a Southern Right Whale calf breaking free from the ocean's embrace with an exuberant leap. As if straight out of a fairytale, this little one boasts an extraordinary white coat that sets it apart from its fellow majestic marine mammals. In the vast gulfs of Valdes Peninsula, Argentina, only 3 or 4 white calves are spotted each year among the thriving Right Whale population. Sadly, few of these enchanting creatures survive to adulthood, making their sightings even more precious. Adult white whales remain elusive to human eyes – like mythical beings hidden beneath the waves. Off Puerto Piramide in Patagonia's Chubut Province, Francois Gohier captured this breathtaking spectacle of nature at its finest. With every splash and spray illuminating their path through crystal-clear waters, these endangered baleen whales remind us of both their vulnerability and resilience. Let your imagination dive deep into this whimsical scene as you marvel at this young wonder exploring its aquatic playground. Witness pure joy as it defies gravity for just a fleeting moment before plunging back into the depths below. This awe-inspiring photograph is not just an image; it's an invitation to cherish our planet's incredible biodiversity and protect these gentle giants for generations to come. So let your spirits soar alongside FG-EB
