Alligator #0011 — BayouSelf Wildlife Archive

Alligator #0011 — BayouSelf Wildlife Archive

One alligator commands the bayou. Two? That’s something else entirely. Alligator #0011 is a rare double entry in the BayouSelf archive — two wild American alligators photographed together in the Louisiana wetlands, side by side in the dark water, a moment of shared territory that the bayou rarely puts on display.

In a project built around singular encounters, this image stands apart. Two creatures, one frame, one extraordinary moment of the Louisiana wild.

Part of the BayouSelf 1,000 Alligators Archive, a long-form documentary photography project dedicated to capturing one thousand individual wild alligators across Louisiana’s wetlands. Each image is a numbered field record — one moment, one truth of the bayou.
