"The Sea for a Turtle" won Bronze in Wildlife at the One Eyeland World's Top 10 Black & White Photographers 2023 Photo Contest. It is an honor to be recognized. It was my first time playing with black & white. I knew the magnificent patterns on the carapace (top of the shell), fins, and face would register well in the black & white spectrum. This particular image is special to me because I got to experience this with my son in the Caribbean. We were suppose to go diving, but because we were congested and could not. We ended up snorkeling and this beautiful green sea turtle was grazing on some sea grass and kept coming up for air by us. It was a memory I'll never forget!
What an honor to be in the final round for the National History Museum's Wildlife Photographer of the Year. What I am most excited about is that it is in a category that I am truly passionate about, "Oceans: The Bigger Picture". This image was taken by drone in June of 2021 during one of Jean Beasley's (pictured sitting on the stool in the middle of the photograph) last sea turtle releases before she retired from the Karen Beasley Sea Turtle Rescue and Rehabilitation Center. It is always exciting and a little bit emotional watching the turtles who most-likely would have died without intervention making their way back home to the ocean! Efforts like this create hope for the future!
My work is available in limited edition archival prints, both framed and unframed. See my store to find out what is available.
