screaming turtle

My screaming turtle photograph has won the “Animal Antics” category of this year’s Nature’s Best photography contest. A large print will be included in an exhibition at the Smithsonian’s Natural History Museum later on this year. Also, one of my great hammerhead shark photographs received a highly honored award in the Oceans category. It’s a great honor to be included as a winner in such a prestigious contest!

Spread from Nature’s Best Magazine:

    I love turltes and about 6months ago someone sent me a jpg with the screaming turtle. I love it. It is on my desk top and I just love this picture. Is there anyway I can get a print of this pic? Email me please, and let me know where I can get one. You are an amazing photographer. Thanks for sharing your work!
