EDITORS COMMENTS
This print by Marc Le Chelard captures the breathtaking beauty of the coral reef in New Caledonia's lagoon. Taken on March 11,2002, it showcases the vibrant colors and intricate formations that make this underwater ecosystem truly remarkable. However, this image also represents a controversial issue. France's request to classify New Caledonia's coral reef as a UNESCO World Heritage Site has sparked heated debates among right-wing politicians in the region. They view this move as unwanted interference and demand that the application be withdrawn from UNESCO. Amidst these conflicting opinions, one cannot deny the significance of preserving such an ecological treasure. The vertical composition emphasizes both its grandeur and fragility simultaneously. It serves as a reminder of our responsibility to protect our planet's natural wonders for future generations. Le Chelard's skillful capture not only portrays the magnificence of nature but also highlights how environmental concerns can become entangled with political agendas. This photograph invites viewers to contemplate both sides of this contentious debate while appreciating the sheer splendor of New Caledonia's coral reef.
