Outstanding shot…as another commenter pointed out, it almost looks 3D…and the way the turtle looks right at the lens makes it appear that they’ve been buds for a very long time…great, great pic…

Very cool shot! Clarity and color for an underwater shot are just terrific. I have some turtle pics from a trip to Maui, but they’re nothing like this spectacular image.

31st August 2011 at 4:04 pm

absolutely phenomenal! The underwater clarity is almost surreal.
Well done!

What a burst of turtle you gave us…and on this powerful blue ride. Looks like it’s taking a dive.
Wow. Thanks.
