Sea Lions, Blue Footed Booby, and a Mocking bird. All shots from last week in the Galapagos. It was the most exhausting but rewarding trips I have ever taken. My wife and I went friends from Prescott and a couple grade school buddies and their wives.
When I was a kid my mom gave me a Jacques Coustou book that had a section on the Galapagos. She had high hopes I would become a marine biologist. That never happened but I always remained fascinated by Islands. Last year for Christmas I received a Galapagos book from my daughter. Possibly a sign but a year ago I would have never imagined I would get there, let alone physically handle it. And last week I was able to swim with Sea turtles, Sea lions, Penguins and assorted fish. Thousands of pictures, videos, and millions of memories.

Good set sir. The last one I see as being humorously labeled "The Guardian".
And all the re-memories will last a lifetime. It is said a song 'remembers when'. So do great visuals, as in photographs, with all the recorded sensory inputs of the time.


That mockingbird in the last shot kept advancing so close as if to mock me for not bringing a macro!

An awesome set of images Larry. Would love to make that trip before I am pushing up daisies!

Thanks Don, Do it before you get too old. I went with some friends and they had to bow out of a couple landings because of exhaustion.

Great pics - really enjoyed - have you some of a big tortoise?


Thanks Delberby, I do have some giant tortoise shots, a couple different types. I'll post them, still backing up shots from my cards. I really overshot.

Cropped versions would make excellent competition entries.

Nicely done! My wife is going to the Galapagos with her traveling friend in late February. I'll show her these.
