EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph taken by Frederick William Bond in 1929, we are transported back in time to London Zoo. The image features a vulnerable Sailfin Lizard perched on a log, its damaged tail visible as it rests peacefully. The lizard's delicate form is beautifully captured, showcasing the intricate details of its scales and the graceful curve of its body. Its vulnerability is palpable, evoking a sense of empathy for this resilient creature. As we observe from the side view, we can appreciate the unique sail-like fin that extends along its spine, characteristic of these Philippine reptiles. This distinctive feature adds an element of intrigue to the composition. Bond's skillful photography allows us to witness this historical moment frozen in time. Through his lens, he captures not only the physical attributes but also conveys a deeper narrative about our relationship with nature and our responsibility towards protecting vulnerable species. This remarkable photograph serves as a reminder of both the beauty and fragility present within our natural world. It prompts us to reflect on how human actions can impact these creatures and encourages us to take action in preserving their habitats for future generations.
