EDITORS COMMENTS
Talk about living life on the edge! This Galapagos Giant Tortoise seems to have found the perfect spot to take in the breathtaking view from atop Alcedo Volcano. With its massive shell and wise old eyes, this reptile is truly a sight to behold. Perched on the rim of the volcano, this tortoise showcases both its impressive size and incredible resilience. As one of only 11 surviving sub-species in the Galapagos Islands, it's clear that these creatures are true survivors. The rugged landscape of Isabela Island serves as a stunning backdrop for this print captured by Pete Oxford. The contrasting colors of lush greenery against volcanic rock create a scene straight out of a nature documentary. It's hard not to be captivated by this majestic creature as it gazes into the distance, perhaps contemplating its next adventure or simply enjoying some peaceful solitude. Whatever thoughts may be running through its mind, one thing is certain - this tortoise knows how to strike a pose! So if you're looking for an awe-inspiring piece of art that celebrates nature's wonders and reminds us of our planet's incredible biodiversity, look no further than Ardea Picture Library's Galapagos Giant Tortoise print.
