Like I said in last week’s UW Wednesday, I’ll be showing some turtle images from our recent trip to Grand Cayman for the next couple of weeks.
I found this guy munching away at the base of this barrel sponge (the whiter area above his left front flipper in the image below). By the about that has been removed I’d say this guys visits this sponge on a regular basis.
As I approached he turned toward me and gave me a look like, “What are you doing interrupting my lunch?”
And then swam right over me; literally inches away.
A very exciting encounter.
The meta data for all three images is the same:
D200 with 12-24 @ 24mm
1/30 sec @ f/8 ISO 100 Ex Comp 0
Aperture Priority; 2 TTL strobes, normal sync
And just to let you know how quick all this happened. Here are the time stamps:
