EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Arnd Wiegmann, a Rodrigue fruit bat gracefully hangs on a perch in the Masoala rainforest hall at the zoo in Zurich. The low angle view and close-up shot allow us to appreciate every intricate detail of this magnificent mammal. With its wings spread wide, it appears as if the bat is cleaning itself, showcasing its meticulous nature even in captivity. The exterior setting of the rainforest hall creates an open space that mimics the natural habitat of these beautiful wild animals. In this moment frozen in time, we witness the power of nature and its ability to create picturesque scenes like this one. Alone on its perch, surrounded by white colors and untouched by human presence, the Rodrigue fruit bat stands as a symbol of resilience and adaptability. Its side view reveals an atmospheric aura that adds to its mystique. This image serves as a reminder of our interconnectedness with the environment and highlights both the fragility and strength found within nature's creations. It invites us to marvel at Earth's wonders while also urging us to protect them for future generations. Arnd Wiegmann's creative use of photography transports us into the great outdoors, allowing us to experience firsthand moments that may otherwise go unnoticed. Through his lens, he captures not just an animal but also a glimpse into a natural phenomenon that continues to inspire awe and admiration.
