The Wider Image: The race to save the coral of the Caribbean
Polyps on a Colpophyllia natans(Boulder Brain Coral) create patterns on top of its skeletal base as the coral rests in a laboratory at a Florida Aquarium facility near Tampa, Florida, U.S. August 14, 2019. This species of coral is extremely susceptible to Stony Coral Tissue Loss Disease (SCTLD). REUTERS/Lucas Jackson SEARCH " JACKSON CORAL" FOR THIS STORY.

23"x19" (58x48cm) Premium Frame
FSC real wood frame with double mounted 16x12 print. Double mounted with white conservation mountboard. Frame moulding comprises stained composite natural wood veneers (Finger Jointed Pine) 39mm wide by 21mm thick. Archival quality Fujifilm CA photo paper mounted onto 1mm card. Overall outside dimensions are 23x19 inches (584x482mm). Rear features Framing tape to cover staples, 50mm Hanger plate, cork bumpers. Glazed with durable thick 2mm Acrylic to provide a virtually unbreakable glass-like finish. Acrylic Glass is far safer, more flexible and much lighter than typical mineral glass. Moreover, its higher translucency makes it a perfect carrier for photo prints. Acrylic allows a little more light to penetrate the surface than conventional glass and absorbs UV rays so that the image and the picture quality doesn't suffer under direct sunlight even after many years. Easily cleaned with a damp cloth. Please note that, to prevent the paper falling through the mount window and to prevent cropping of the original artwork, the visible print may be slightly smaller to allow the paper to be securely attached to the mount without any white edging showing and to match the aspect ratio of the original artwork.

EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we are transported into the heart of a laboratory at a Florida Aquarium facility near Tampa, Florida. The image showcases the delicate beauty and intricate patterns created by polyps on a Colpophyllia natans, commonly known as Boulder Brain Coral. As the coral rests peacefully atop its skeletal base, it mesmerizes us with its vibrant colors and unique formations. However, beneath this enchanting facade lies an alarming reality. This particular species of coral is under grave threat from Stony Coral Tissue Loss Disease (SCTLD), which makes it highly susceptible to deterioration. The urgency to save these corals becomes palpable as we witness their fragile existence in this photograph. Photographer Lucas Jackson skillfully captures both the fragility and resilience of these underwater ecosystems through his lens. His work serves as a reminder that our actions have direct consequences on nature's wonders. "The Wider Image: The race to save the coral of the Caribbean" takes us beyond aesthetic appreciation and compels us to acknowledge our responsibility in preserving these invaluable treasures for future generations. It is a call to action for scientists, conservationists, and individuals alike to join forces in protecting our oceans' biodiversity before it's too late. This thought-provoking image invites viewers to delve deeper into understanding the challenges faced by marine life while igniting hope that concerted efforts can still make a difference in safeguarding our planet's most vulnerable ecosystems.
