EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Enrique Castro-Mendivil, we are transported to Isla de Asia, a guano island located approximately 100 km south of Lima. The image showcases a bustling colony of sea lions basking in the sun, finding respite on this remote island. The scene is not only home to these charismatic marine mammals but also serves as a sanctuary for an astonishing number of guano birds during certain times of the year. As many as 100,000 guano birds flock to this island, including pelicans, Peruvian Boobies, and Guanay Cormorants. The composition beautifully captures the harmony between land and sea creatures in their natural habitat. The sea lions appear relaxed and content while sharing their space with various bird species that find solace amidst the rocky shores. This photograph offers us a glimpse into Peru's diverse wildlife and highlights the importance of preserving such fragile ecosystems. It reminds us of our responsibility to protect these habitats for future generations so that they may continue to witness nature's wonders firsthand. Enrique Castro-Mendivil's skillful lens allows us to appreciate both the beauty and fragility of life on Isla de Asia—a testament to his dedication as a photographer capturing moments that inspire awe and raise awareness about our environment.
