It was so incredible to swim with the turtles and see them come up for air. I tried to get a half in/half out of the water shot…but he was too fast. And I was bobbing up and down like a cork in the waves.

Swimming with Galapagos Sea iIons
They LOVED to play with you. This one swam straight toward me and knocked my mask off.
This lil pup was really hard to catch –he swam so fast and erratically.
Galapagos under water
Snorkeling in the Galapagos was terrific. THere were so many kinds of fish and wildlife. Most were found very close to the cliffs of these volcanic islands. So you had to be very careful of the surf pushing you into the sides of the wall or into shallow reefs where you would get instantly cut up.
These were all taken with my lil point and shoot Olympus TG-6.
Faraway Friday–GIANT snow balls
The icebergs and such interesting shapes & colors up in the high Arctic.
THese “snowballs” were each the size of a bus.
Wildlife Wednesday. I’m a BIG boy now!
This big male polar bear in Spitsbergen kept the whole beach to himself.
High Key abstract
I enjoy using different techniques to create artistic images.
This was shot at high noon sun in Bosque del Apache. While the birds snoozed we sought to make fun abstracts.
Faraway Friday-Missing Glacier
Just 5 years ago I’m told this Arctic glacier always went all the way down the valley to the water.
