More from the water




These were all taken with a Nikon 17-35mm f2.8 lens with no flash all while I was nice and dry behind a large piece of glass. These are from the aquarium at Sea World in San Diego.

    2. You're a mind reader Val. I was just looking through a bunch of my shots (I really was doing just that) to see which ones I could actually sell. I think I've got about 15 or 20 that I can print up and sell in 8 x 10s and I was going to start working on those next week.

      If people will buy them and it will get me money for Maui then I will certainly have them printed up! Hmmmm, Money for Maui, sounds like a good company name! LOL

    1. Don't worry Q, I have a list with everybody's names on it. LOL I think I stand a better chance of winning the lottery than I do at getting rich by selling photos though. But I did buy a lottery ticket today!

  5. I see the 1st pic being a large many piece picture puzzle. A great item at acquarium gift shops.
    I am a great fan of turtles and these two are sharp!
