A photo taken on September 22, 2014, shows a tourist from the Ocean Freedom walking on an exposed sand bar on Australias Great Barrier Reef. The 2, 300-kilometre-long reef contributes AUS$5.4 billion (US$4.8 billion) annually to the Australian economy through tourism, fishing, and scientific research, while supporting 67, 000 jobs, according to government data. According to an Australian government report in August, the outlook for the Earths largest living structure is " poor", with climate change posing the most serious threat to the extensive coral reef ecosystem.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a tourist from the Ocean Freedom walking on an exposed sand bar in Australia's Great Barrier Reef. Taken on September 22,2014, this image symbolizes the delicate balance between human exploration and conservation efforts in one of Earth's most precious ecosystems. Stretching over 2,300 kilometers, the Great Barrier Reef is not only a natural wonder but also a significant contributor to Australia's economy. Government data reveals that it injects AUS$5.4 billion annually into the country through tourism, fishing, and scientific research activities while supporting an impressive 67,000 jobs. However, this awe-inspiring reef faces an uncertain future as climate change emerges as its gravest threat. An Australian government report released in August highlights that the outlook for this colossal living structure is "poor". The warming oceans and rising sea levels caused by climate change pose unprecedented challenges to the extensive coral reef ecosystem. The photographer behind this poignant image is William West from Agence France-Presse (AFP). Through his lens, he encapsulates both the beauty and fragility of nature's masterpiece while reminding us of our responsibility to protect it for generations to come. As we gaze upon this photograph print with admiration and concern, let it serve as a call to action for all individuals and nations alike – urging us to prioritize conservation efforts and combat climate change before we lose one of Earth's greatest treasures forever.
