EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the heartwarming bond between a mother and baby African penguin in their natural habitat at Boulders Beach, Cape of Good Hope, South Africa. The colony of these adorable jackass penguins, scientifically known as Spheniscus demersus, creates a mesmerizing sight against the backdrop of sandy beaches and rocky shores. In this vibrant color image, taken by Michael Runkel/robertharding, we witness the bustling life of these avian creatures as they thrive amidst the beauty of nature. The horizontal composition allows us to appreciate not only the main subjects but also the incidental people in the background who are fortunate enough to witness this incredible scene. The large group of animals gathered here showcases the thriving population of African penguins in their native environment. As they nest and care for their young ones with utmost tenderness and dedication, it is evident that family plays a crucial role in their lives. The crystal-clear waters surrounding them add an element of tranquility to this lively moment captured during daylight hours. This photograph serves as a reminder that our planet is home to diverse animal species like these charming African penguins that deserve our admiration and protection. With its rich colors and striking imagery, this print beautifully encapsulates both the serene beauty of Boulders Beach and the remarkable connection between mother and baby within this enchanting penguin colony.
