Emergence
Trees that manage to break through a tropical forest canopy and spread their branches above those of their neighbors in search of valuable sunlight are called emergents. This elegant emergent was photographed in the Atlantic Rainforest of Brazil, more specifically in the Votuapá Nature Preserve located in the mountains about 150 kilometers from the city of Rio de Janeiro. The Atlantic Rainforest of Brazil is one of the most endangered forest ecosystems of the world, with less than 8% of its original cover remaining.
