Hawksbill turtle, Ai Island – Indonesia
This hawksbill turtle tolerated my close presence, but only when she was at the bottom of the water. I wanted to go underneath her in order to frame her with the sun, but she dived deeper at every try. After several attempts and when she was forced to return to the surface to breathe, I was able to position myself deeper in order to frame her with the sun.
