Man oh man, so many days I spent with my head under the water when we were there in February and I still never got to see one of these. Thanks for the pic...I can pretend now, lol
This is fantastic! Beautiful, another world... underwater, I am in awe. I thank you for visiting my blog and the nice comment! ~Michele~ The Rocky Mountain Retreat
Very nice photo. Welcome home! Is that turtle really a regular around the reef? My brother lives in the California desert and has a giant land tortoise stop by his property every year for a few months at a time.
Thanks for the shout out Bobbie, I always love coming here to see your wonderful photographs and insightful articles, the sea is such a beautiful place and you and Jerry do a wonderful service in bring it to us :)
Thank you all for visiting and for commenting -- and for welcoming us back home from our travels.
To answer Pete's question about whether this turtle really is a regular around our home ref, the answer is a resounding YES> You can read all about this special turtle in two of our earlier posts:
The Right Blue refers to the goal of a lifelong pursuit. Sea water viewed from beneath the surface comes in many hues and shades. Surfers wait for the perfect wave; divers seek the right blue.
