Galapagos Sea Lion (Zalophus wollebaeki) Female underwater, Floreana Is.

 

           You would think this would be easy...  Sea lions in the Galapagos are curious, unafraid - and constantly in motion.  The hard part is not getting close to them: the hard part is getting them to stop doing high-speed loops around you so fast that it's impossible to keep them in the viewfinder. 

            This young sea lion obliged by stopping just long enough to take a look at me -- and then it began twisting me into knots again...

Meanwhile, Kevin is offering several photographic trips in 2007.

In May/June, he will lead two photographic trips to Madagascar.  For more information look here.

Then, in August, he will be aboard a voyage to Eastern Greenland.  For details see:  Greenland.

Let Kevin know if you have any questions about either trip.
