EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo captured by Saul Martinez, we witness a man carrying two cold-stunned iguanas that were discovered near a local pond in Lake Worth, Florida. The extreme cold weather had taken its toll on these wild reptiles, rendering them immobile and vulnerable. As the man carefully cradles the unrecognizable creatures in his arms, their bodies cast long shadows against the ground below. The juxtaposition of this urban city scene with the presence of such a surprising sight creates an air of astonishment among onlookers. Passersby stop to observe this unusual encounter between man and nature amidst their daily routines. The iguanas' tails dangle freely as they are transported to safety, while curious eyes follow their every move. This photograph not only captures a unique moment but also serves as a reminder of our interconnectedness with the environment and its inhabitants. It prompts us to reflect upon how climate change affects even those living within bustling cities like Lake Worth. Saul Martinez's creative use of composition allows us to view this scene from above, providing an expansive perspective on both the individual carrying these fragile creatures and the surrounding city life. With ample copy space around them, these real people become part of a larger narrative about our responsibility towards preserving nature in an ever-changing world.
