Isabela, Galapagos
I have spent a lot of time at this point trying to get a reflection up along the surface as a turtle goes up to breathe. Mostly I found it tricky at first when being jostled about by the waters trying to carefully position before the turtle has had its air fill and proceeds to be down below for awhile. But it was always very cool to float along beside them and see the way they arch up to periscope some air for a few gulps before getting back to underwater time. The water clarity was not quite as good this day but there was a still enough surface and the lighting was right to snag at least some shots of the very cool mirroring that happens.
