This print captures the enchanting beauty of a Stick Insect (Phasmatodea), also known as a Walking Stick Insect, in Boca Tapada, Alajuela Province, Costa Rica. The image showcases the incredible detail and intricate features of this fascinating creature against a backdrop of lush greenery. In this color image taken at night, we see the side view of the stick insect standing tall on a branch, perfectly blending with its surroundings. The grey-toned insect casts an elongated shadow on the tree trunk beneath it, adding to its mysterious allure. The absence of people allows us to focus solely on the natural world and appreciate the wonders that exist within it. This solitary animal exemplifies wildlife in its purest form – untamed and thriving in its natural habitat. Boca Tapada is renowned for being one of Costa Rica's hidden gems when it comes to travel destinations. Nestled within Alajuela Province, this region offers visitors an opportunity to immerse themselves in nature's splendor while encountering unique creatures like this stick insect. Matthew Williams-Ellis skillfully captured this moment in time through his lens, showcasing not only his talent but also highlighting the importance of preserving our planet's biodiversity. This photograph serves as a reminder that there is still so much left to explore and protect in our wild spaces across Central America and Latin America.
