Photograph of the Week

I may have told this story already, but during my trip to the Bahamas last year, I had an interesting marine encounter. I had my macro lens on my camera taking pictures of something small in the sand when I felt a shadow fall across me. I turned over and looked up to see a Loggerhead turtle, bigger than me, sitting right on top of me. My first thought, of course, was to get a picture, but it was so close that my macro lens was only able to frame the eyes. This picture doesn’t really tell you the size, but it was BIG.
