EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print by Michael Wood, we are transported to the serene waters of Fanning Springs State Park in Florida. Just below the crystal-clear surface, a magnificent manatee indulges in an unexpected snack - a dock rope. With its large mouth wide open and eyes filled with curiosity, the playful mammal showcases its unique behavior. The image beautifully captures the reflection of this gentle giant against the calm freshwater backdrop. The vibrant colors and horizontal composition add depth to the scene, emphasizing both the tranquility of nature and the wildness of marine life. Manatees, also known as sea cows, are herbivorous creatures belonging to the Sirenia order. As vulnerable species on our planet, their presence is cherished within protected areas like Fanning Springs State Park. This photograph serves as a reminder of their importance in maintaining ecological balance. Wood's skillful photography allows us to witness animal behavior up close without disturbing their natural habitat. It highlights how even seemingly mundane moments can be extraordinary when observed through a lens that appreciates wildlife in all its glory. This awe-inspiring image invites viewers into an underwater world where humans take a backseat and nature reigns supreme. It serves as a testament to both our fascination with these majestic creatures and our responsibility towards preserving their existence for future generations to cherish.
