Description

This is a one-of-a-kind photo that will draw the viewer into intrigue and amazement. This unretouched image appears as a painting although it's a photograph; the blend of the reflecting sun, seagrass, white sand and vibrant turtle shell blend perfectly and will look great in any size. Uniqueness and brilliance stand out.

This photo was shot when the turtle was on his journey down to the seafloor; the turtle let the camera rest on his big shell while paddling quickly in the water near Belize with the many turtles enjoying the warm, salty Caribbean Sea. The turtle was swimming in the area of the reefs and the island of Caye Caulker in Central America.

Swimming freely in the brilliantly clear water was this beautiful 2-foot long sea turtle; a green turtle, as can be determined by the beautiful multi-colored shell and a small head. He would spend most of his days laying in the sandy seagrass by sharks, rays, and other underwater wildlife.
