Juvenile snappers hiding behind the sharp spines of a sea urchn.
I'm back to muck diving, the art of finding rare, unusual, tiny and well camouflaged marine animals in sandy or seagrass habitats.
I'm on YouTube too with lots of underwater videos
had a few minutes to spare so ducked down to Snapper Rocks, the site of this years Quicksilver Pro, for a look and was rewarded with a nice pool of light!
This medium-sized snapping turtle was feeding near the shoreline, and stuck his head up just as he swam through a pool of sunlight. HDR processing was used to bring the organic sheen and algae to life - it has a somewhat metalic look even in the original image. Taken at Hidden Pond Nature Center and Park, Springfield Virginia. The common snapping turtle (Chelydra serpentina) is a large freshwater turtle of the family Chelydridae. The snapper is an aquatic ambush hunter, capturing its prey with its beak-like jaws which are clearly seen in this image.
Many thanks to everyone who will pass by visiting my shots. Comments are appreciated. You are welcome. Sergio

After heading down the coast on my jetski a few weeks ago I found this spot. I wanted to come back for a visit so with some moody skies after the recent storms I went for a drive today and this is what I found.
