[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Technically this picture is not that great. I posted it because it's special to me because this was the first sea-turtle I encountered in the wild. I was able to follow it for a minute before I had to go up to catch some air.
Hope you like it.

That is an amazingly clear shot through water, Frank. I can imagine how exciting it would be to see a sea turtle. You did a great job. I also like the nice frame you make for all your photos. Well done and TFS. : )

Technically Frank this shot isn't too bad, considering your subject is under water.
You were very lucky to capture this amazing creature in it's natural habitat, which is what this site is about.
It's a shame you cropped his legs off, and I personally would have cloned or cropped the shadow at the top of the image.
Thanks for posting and well done.
Welcome to TN.
