EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken circa 1938 at Marine Studios in Marineland, Florida, USA, showcases a harmonious moment under the ocean's surface. The tranquil scene features a curious dolphin and a graceful turtle, both drawn near an underwater bell. The bell, a distinctive feature of Marine Studios' oceanarium, serves as a signal that it is feeding time. Marine Studios, established in the late 1930s, was a pioneering oceanarium in St. Augustine, Florida, dedicated to the exhibition and study of marine life. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, when visitors could observe these magnificent creatures up close and personal. The dolphin, a playful and intelligent marine mammal, swims towards the bell with anticipation, its sleek body gliding through the water. The turtle, a reptile native to Florida waters, rests calmly on the sandy ocean floor, its ancient, wise eyes fixated on the bell. The ringing of the bell signifies that it is time for the dolphins and turtles, as well as other marine life, to be fed. The sound of the bell echoes through the water, a call that resonates with the hunger and curiosity of these creatures. This photograph is a testament to the natural beauty and wonder of the marine world, captured in a time long past. It invites us to reflect on the history of marine conservation efforts and the importance of preserving the delicate balance of our oceans for future generations to enjoy.
