Beautiful pics!:D Great camera skills

Have you ever seen sea turtles come ashore to lay eggs? Those would make for some awesome pics.

[SMB2]

Chris, I have seen turtles lay eggs and hatch. Have some shots but they are on slide film and I don't scan a lot of my older stuff.
Have never had my underwater set up to photo baby turtles going into the water.
This little guy was about 8 inches (probably three year old).

Man, that's awesome! The turtle likes posing for the camera. Is this one of your hobbies? What other great pictures do you have that you can share?

[SMB2]

Thanks Chris. I have been shooting underwater for 30 years. And lots of land photography a well.
