I'm Ready For My Close-up, Mr. DeMille

We had an interesting encounter with a large hawksbill turtle on a reef called 50/50.

 

The curious turtle approached very close to William, gently testing his beak on William’s mask, then moving down and lightly grabbing his fins.

 

Finally, it approached my camera and nibbled on the framer as I snapped a couple of frames. This weird encounter made for an unusual portrait.
