EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the mesmerizing beauty of a partially coiled Rosy Boa, Charina trivirgata. The overhead view showcases its intricate skin adorned with numerous small scales, elegantly patterned with vibrant orange stripes. The eye of this nocturnal hunter is a fascinating sight - small in size, yet striking with its vertical pupil and enchanting orange irises. As a typical forager of the night, this snake possesses remarkable adaptations that aid in its hunting endeavors. Its forked tongue flickers out to sense the environment, helping it locate prey even in darkness. The distinctive markings on its skin not only add to its aesthetic appeal but also serve as camouflage while stalking unsuspecting victims. Belonging to the squamata order and serpentes suborder, this member of the boidae family exhibits alluring characteristics shared by reptiles. Known for their carnivorous nature and constricting abilities, boas like this Rosy Boa are formidable predators within their ecosystems. Photographer Laura Wickenden skillfully captures every detail of this incredible creature through her studio shot. With an overhead perspective highlighting its coiled posture and unique features, she allows us to appreciate the wonders found in wildlife photography. This image serves as a reminder of the diverse array of animals that inhabit our world and invites us into the intriguing realm of snakes – creatures both feared and admired for centuries.
