A treefrog peering into the darkness of a tropical rainforest has won the 2022 British Ecological Society photography competition.
Overall winner Roberto Garcia Roa walked away with £750 and a Lomo’Instant Camera for his arresting photo of a Helen’s Treefrog in Peru.
“This image reveals the beauty of nature hidden in Tambopata, a region that is currently threatened by gold mining. It is paradoxical to see the eyes of this frog as small golden pearls because, in reality, the true treasure lies in ensuring the protection of this area and its inhabitants.
Highly commended in the Individuals and Populations category winner | Come Denechaud/British Ecological Society
