EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the unique beauty of a Rhynchonycteris naso, also known as a proboscis bat, in its natural habitat in Belize. The intricate details of this wild mammal are brought to life by photographer Frank Greenaway's expert eye for wildlife photography.
The proboscis bat is a fascinating creature with its distinctive long nose and sac-winged features. Despite its unconventional appearance, there is an undeniable charm to this central American chiroptera species. Greenaway's studio shot showcases the ugly yet intriguing qualities of this mammal, making it a standout subject in the world of animal photography.
Through this photograph, viewers are transported to the lush landscapes of Belize where these bats roam freely. The image captures just one moment in time, but it speaks volumes about the diversity and wonder of nature. As part of the Eutheria order within mammals, proboscis bats play an important role in their ecosystem as pollinators and insectivores.
Frank Greenaway's skillful composition and attention to detail make this print a true work of art that celebrates the beauty found in even the most unconventional creatures. It serves as a reminder of the importance of preserving our planet's wildlife for future generations to appreciate and admire.
