Description
The Loggerhead Turtle is an oceanic Turtle, and is found in oceans throughout the world. Loggerheads shells average thirty five inches in length, and the reptile weighs approximately 300 hundred pounds in adulthood, though they can get much larger. These turtles typically live 50-70 years, but due to their slow reproduction rate, and the fact that their eggs are laid on beaches, the Loggerhead has become endangered.

Assuming this is still from your Bahamas trip, I think this is my favorite, Aaron. Such a beautiful creature well captured. Love the soft, beautiful light and all the great detail. Love the composition; very intimate. L/F/FB
