EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the vibrant and intricate beauty of parrot feathers from a South American Indian's head-dress. Each feather is a masterpiece of nature, consisting of a central axis or rachis that extends from the hollow quill attached to the bird's body. The rachis serves as the foundation for the awe-inspiring flat vane of the feather, which is composed of numerous slender barbs adorned with delicate barbules along each side. What makes these feathers truly remarkable is how their barbules interlock with those on adjacent barbs, forming an exquisite and seamless surface. This interlocking mechanism creates a continuous and flawless texture that adds to their visual allure. The colors displayed in this print are nothing short of breathtaking - vivid blues, radiant greens, fiery reds - all harmoniously blending together to create an explosion of hues. These feathers serve as both decorative elements and symbols within indigenous cultures, representing power, spirituality, and connection to nature. As we admire this image captured by Science Photo Library, we can't help but marvel at the complexity and artistry found in every single feather. It reminds us once again why birds are such fascinating creatures; they possess not only flight but also these extraordinary plumage structures that have captivated human imagination throughout history.
