Iridescent colours in the plumage of a Southeast Asian Nicobar pigeon (Caloenas nicobarica).
The Nicobar Pigeon is one of the most beautiful of the many species of pigeons or doves and is the only living member of the genus Caloenus. It is found in the Islands of Nicobar, south west peninsular Thailand, Malaysia, Vietnam, Indonesia, Philippines, Solomans and palau. Once known to be found in abundance in its range, their numbers in the wild are declining as they are frequently captured for pet trade and hunted for food

EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures the mesmerizing beauty of a Nicobar pigeon, showcasing its iridescent plumage in vibrant Southeast Asian colors. The Nicobar Pigeon, scientifically known as Caloenas nicobarica, is truly a sight to behold and stands out among the many species of pigeons and doves. Endemic to various regions including the Islands of Nicobar, south west peninsular Thailand, Malaysia, Vietnam, Indonesia, Philippines, Solomans and Palau; this majestic bird is unfortunately facing a decline in its population. Once abundant in its natural habitat, it has become increasingly rare due to being captured for the pet trade and hunted for food. Photographer Frans Sellies skillfully captures every intricate detail of this exquisite creature's plumage. From its shimmering feathers that reflect an array of captivating hues to its elegant posture exuding gracefulness - this portrait truly showcases the essence of nature's artistry. As we admire this breathtaking image printed on fine art paper from Fine Art Storehouse, let us also be reminded of our responsibility towards preserving these magnificent creatures' habitats and ensuring their survival. May this photograph serve as a reminder that every effort counts in protecting endangered species like the Nicobar pigeon so that future generations can continue to marvel at their unparalleled beauty.
