EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print by Andrea Ricordi, we are transported to the lush rainforests of Sabah, Borneo, Malaysia. Our attention is immediately drawn to the charismatic subject - a proboscis monkey with its mouth wide open in a yawn. Known for its distinctive feature, the long-nosed monkey or bekantan showcases its reddish-brown fur and an unusually large nose that adds to its unique charm. This endemic species can only be found on the enchanting island of Borneo. The setting of Labuk Bay Proboscis Monkey Sanctuary provides a safe haven for these incredible creatures amidst their natural habitat. The sanctuary's efforts in conservation and protection allow visitors to witness firsthand the beauty and diversity of Borneo's wildlife. Andrea Ricordi skillfully captures not only the physical attributes but also the personality of this primate through his lens. The image evokes a sense of curiosity as we wonder what thoughts may be running through this sleepy creature's mind. As we admire this remarkable photograph, let us appreciate both nature's wonders and those who dedicate themselves to preserving it. Through art like Ricordi's work, we are reminded of our responsibility towards protecting these magnificent animals and their habitats for generations to come.
