We are one out of one trillion species currently living on Earth, on a unique paradise in the harsh space ocean. On this morning of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, I was photographing the full moon setting just before sunrise. I noticed hundreds of seabirds flying from their nests in the nearby islands to the city’s seashore. Some of these huge frigatebirds have about 2 meters (7.5 ft) wingspan. As they passed above me, the air was filled with ambient sound of their flapping wings. It felt like a Jurassic scene with Pterosaurs flying above me!
