Nice photo........very clear. Don't see very much of those turtles around.

Did you use your strobe on this one?

this one does not swim but i did see it on a dive trip to the galapagos

DrJay....I didn't use a strobe. We were in a natural spring in Balmorhea State Park and it was only 25ft deep max. So what you're seeing is natural daylight.

Doc....your old turtle has got green spooge in his eyes! His buddy should let him know about that!

Here is my contribution. Hope this works - this is the first time I have tried to do this using the IMG tag function.

If any photo ever deserved a caption/speech balloon, it's Docmartins. Man that tortise looks grumpy.

Shot off of Molokini Crater with a TRV30 MiniDV in Photo mode (about 1.3Mpixel). This was my first dive vacation with the camera and housing.
