This print by Morley Read showcases the vibrant beauty of a tropical beetle in its natural habitat. The photograph was taken amidst the lush rainforest at an elevation of 900 metres in the Rio Bigal Biological Reserve, near Sumaco National Park, Ecuador. The stunningly bright red beetle stands out against the backdrop of green foliage as it rests gracefully on a leaf. Its intricate details and unique markings are a testament to the wonders of nature's design. As an arthropod belonging to the insect class, this mesmerizing creature belongs to a diverse group that plays crucial roles in our ecosystems. Ecuador, located in South America and known for its rich biodiversity, provides an ideal environment for such fascinating species to thrive. This single beetle represents just one small part of the vast array of fauna found within Latin America's tropical regions. Morley Read's skillful photography allows us to appreciate not only the aesthetic appeal but also highlights the importance of preserving these delicate ecosystems. Through his lens, we gain insight into entomology and biology while being reminded of our responsibility towards protecting wildlife and their habitats. This print serves as a reminder that even seemingly tiny creatures can have immense significance within our natural world – showcasing both their resilience and fragility amidst breathtaking surroundings.
