EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases two fascinating creatures of the tropical world: the Elater, also known as the Click Beetle, and the Elops Saurus, or the Skipjack Fish. The Elater, a member of the Elateridae family, is renowned for its unique jumping mechanism. When threatened, this beetle can propel itself into the air with a loud clicking sound, earning it the name "pounder." With ten spring-like legs, the Elater is an impressive sight to behold. In stark contrast to the Elater's terrestrial existence, the Elops Saurus, a member of the Elopidae family, is a marine fish. This fish, also known as the Snapping Saur, Ladyfish, or Saurfish, is a popular species in tropical waters. The Elops Saurus is an agile swimmer, capable of skipping across the water's surface. Its elongated snout and sharp teeth make it an effective predator. The intriguing juxtaposition of these two creatures in this print highlights the rich diversity of life on our planet. The Elater and Elops Saurus, though belonging to different kingdoms, share a tenuous connection in their tenacity and adaptability. This print is a testament to the beauty and wonder of the natural world, frozen in time and brought to us by the wonders of photography.
