Everyone knows that the lungs of our planet – home to more species of plants, birds, and mammals than anywhere in the world – hold the key to our survival, but few have floated through this region’s labyrinthine waterways or climbed high into its canopy, laced with liana vines, bromeliads and flashes of iridescent plumage. Welcome to nature with the volume, dimensions, and colour turned up to the max.
