"Turtle Gaze"
Sometimes you can see an animals curiosity during an encounter.
"See You Soon"
Though we must come up for air, we also know we can reenter the blue world as many times as we want.
"Turtle Youth"
A very small Green Sea Turtle swimming and looking for turtle grass just off Seven Mile Beach.
"Brief Blue Moments"
Getting images of Turtles on or near the surface takes respect. You respect the animal and earn its trust and in turn it will be reciprocated with awesome encounters and images to save the memory.

The ex-USS Kittiwake is seen in an over-under photograph as rays of sunlight penetrate the sea.
Floating Leaf - Cemetery Beach
The kittiwake
"Golden Portrait II"
I angled my strobes to light just the face. I used a high shutter speed to keep the water blue and provide contrast to the yellow. A shallow depth of field kept focus on just the face and eyes. No filters or Photoshop.
"Dinner Bell"
Loggerhead chowing down. An incredible experience sitting inches away from this guy for about 20 minutes while he finished off his meal.

'Following The Leader' - Horse eye jacks swim over the stern of the Kittiwake off the coast of Grand Cayman
"Starfish And Water Droplet"
Starfish over-under photograph. Look closely: a drop of water is frozen as it bounces off the surface of the water!
No Photoshop.

"Levels"
The Kittiwake, a playground for divers and fish alike.
Dive In - a brightly clad diver takes a giant stride in to join fellow photographers in Little Cayman.

"Turtle In The Sunlight"
Rays of late-day sun illuminate a resting green sea turtle.
"Sparkling Breaths"
A Green Turtle surfaces for a breather in the early morning light.
"Skybill Silhouette"
I have been trying to have a day a week were a shoot "Bare Neccesities" this of course is just a fancy phrase for natural light, but it has been awesome to free up the mind with flash settings once in awhile and focus on comp...
"Squid In High Key"
I spent about 1 1/2 hrs with some playful squid on a shallow shore dive. I pointed my camera straight up under the squid against the sky & intentionally overexposed the sun to blow out the sky & leave just the squid as subject.
"Follow the Leader"
Nothing like a game of tag with some friendly Spotted Eagle Rays.
"Pretty Shell"
A beautiful Green Sea Turtle cruises the turtle grass fields just off of Spotts Beach, Grand Cayman.
"Spinning Sponges"
The sponge in the foreground is illuminated by my strobes, while the ones in the background spin! No Photoshop.

shortlistedShortlisted!
"Christmas Texture"
Christmas tree worms in a beautiful shade of orange, contrasting nicely against charcoal-colored coral! Texture achieved by shooting with a single strobe.
