EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the instinctual journey of Olive Ridley turtle hatchlings as they make their way towards the vast expanse of the ocean. Taken on a sunny day at a beach in Same, Ecuador, Daniel Tapia skillfully portrays these tiny creatures emerging from their sandy nests into the world. The image showcases an exterior landscape where sand and soil meet the confrontational air. With creative use of depth of field, Tapia brings attention to the birth scene while keeping other elements out of focus. The small size and delicate shells of these baby animals are emphasized against the expansive beach backdrop. Nature's miracle unfolds before our eyes as each hatchling navigates its way through this challenging terrain towards its ultimate destination -the sea. This photograph beautifully encapsulates both vulnerability and resilience in one frame. Without any human presence, we are left to marvel at this awe-inspiring moment that reminds us of nature's incredible ability to create life against all odds. The weathered texture of the sand adds an organic touch to this picture, enhancing our connection with Mother Earth. Daniel Tapia's lens has immortalized this precious encounter between land and sea, leaving us captivated by the beauty and fragility found within our natural world.
