(EN) Easter Island (Rapa Nui), home to the Rapa Nui people, is known for its mystery filled aura: an isolated island of the Pacific, connecting the Polynesian geographical triangle with Hawai'i and New Zealand. Whether you think of the massive Moai statues, the rich native culture or the widespread lack of tall vegetation, all come along with theories and uncertanties drawn by many curious minds, since first visited by an European expedition in 1722. The photograph depicts the extinct Ranu Kao volcano's crater, one of the few locations of the island that kept its original flora and fauna, having survived the heavy deforestation and natural resources depletion that ocurred in the island, and is the ground base for conservational efforts of international organizations and the Chilean government of recovering the island's flora.
