I photographed this sun-worshipping seal at Sea World in Orlando, FL. It was a hot June afternoon and while all the visitors were mopping their brows, this little fellow was staying cool and relaxed in his sparkling blue pool!

A nice action shot pressing the shutter at the peak of the action (no shutter lag here!)
This picture was taken on a whim. I was out one night a saw how beautiful the moon looked. I ran upstairs, grabbed my camera, then drove to the beach and took this shot! It was taken at Dania Beach, FL with a Canon Rebel EOS camera.
There's a neat little marina in the middle keys where tarpon congregate by the hundreds! I used my Canon Rebel topside and captured this shot.
