Winners of the “Capturing Ecology” Photo Competition

The British Ecological Society has finally announced the winners of its photography competition titled “Capturing Ecology”. The photographs, all of which were taken by either ecologists or students, show the magnificent beauty, as well as the frailty, of the natural world.

The overall award was won by Roberto García Roa, a postdoctoral researcher at the University of Valencia. His entry was that of a Malagasy tree boa.

The other entries are also worth marveling at. Check them out over at New Atlas.

The thing about a snake, it's got lifeless eyes, black eyes, like a doll's eyes. When it comes at you it doesn't seem to be livin'... until he bites you, and those black eyes roll over white.

I discovered Otterness when he did a multi-piece installation in downtown Indianapolis a few years ago, and I fell in love with him. He really captures the innocence of childhood without being all ironic or quirky/"whimsical" about it. The best one in Indy was a sculpture called, I think, "Mad Mom" of a frowning woman with her hands on her hips. They put it in front of the statehouse, which I think was appropriate. :-P
