Galapagos - October 2008

[Hammerhead]

The reptile that stumped the world of naturalists. The sea iguana

And a couple of crabs for no reason other than the colours

 

[Hammerhead]

OK, so that's enough land stuff.

Time to see some seals that aren't just lying around. They're playful as can be in the water!

 

[Hammerhead]

And more...

 

[Hammerhead]

Rays and turtles

 

[Hammerhead]

Time for some big stuff, methinks. Whaleshark time (this is where I miss a fisheye lens)

 

[Hammerhead]

more of the big chaps

 

[Hammerhead]

Last couple. The second one's my favourite.

 

[Hammerhead]

There are other sharks around, oh yes.

Sometimes you don't even notice them...

 

[Hammerhead]

But truth be told, the hammerheads are the big attraction underwater...

Even when they're far away...

 

[Hammerhead]

Or a bit closer...
