EDITORS COMMENTS
In this breathtaking photograph by Guillermo Ossa Riaño, the raw power and majesty of nature are on full display as a humpback whale (Megaptera novaeangliae) leaps out of the Pacific Ocean off the coast of Nuqui, Colombia. The humpback whale, also known as the "jumping whale" or "yubarta" in local Choco language, is a regular visitor to these waters during its annual migration from feeding grounds in the Antarctic. The image captures the dramatic moment when the massive creature, weighing up to 40 tons and measuring up to 16 meters in length, uses all its strength to propel itself out of the water, creating a powerful splash and a crash as it lands back in the sea. The humpback whale's acrobatic display is a spectacle of nature that never fails to leave onlookers in awe. The photograph also showcases the stunning landscapes of the Pacific Ocean, with its crystal-clear waters and the lush greenery of the Colombian coastline providing a beautiful backdrop to the action. The humpback whale's graceful form, emerging from the water, adds to the sense of drama and wild beauty of the scene. This image is a testament to the incredible force and power of these magnificent animals, reminding us of the importance of preserving their habitats and protecting them from threats such as habitat loss, entanglement in fishing gear, and climate change. The humpback whale is a symbol of the majesty and wonder of the natural world, and this photograph captures its essence in a truly captivating way.
