Great photo! Sea turtles are so amazing. I had the change to swim with them in Hawaii last year and it was unbelieveable.
Very nice shot! The details on the turtles hue is gorgeous!
Absolutely incredible!
You took that photo? Seriously?
OMG -- I have to go lie down now.

I could stay in your blue world for hours ! it looks so beautiful !
Wow!!! What a stunning photo.
Sleepy? Me too actually!! :P
Nice shot.. as always :)

I've never imagined how a sea turtle might nap before. With surroundings like that they must have wonderful dreams.
Beautiful image, as always.
Great shot. Don't see to many shots of sea turtles. Hope you have a great wednesday. =0
Super capture. I just love your underwater photos.
What a wonderful shot. Exotic and beautiful.
Great picture. This would make terrific wallpaper the next time I go into an "I want blue wallpaper" phase.
This is soooooooooooo beautiful. Wow! I love this one. Great shot.
Awesome! Love it!
What a wonderful picture. I love it.
That makes me sleepy too, so serene... Yaaawwwnnnnnn....zzzz Happy WW
Oh, he's marvelous, isn't he? It must be amazing to see him and his buddies in person.
Awesome underwater shot.
Gorgeous. But then, that's all you ever post here. He really does look sleepy! Then again I've heard those guys have a life expectancy in the triple digits, and if I were to live that long I suspect I'd nod off now and then myself.
Actually I do that now!
Thanks everyone. I'm thinking I should post turtle photos more often. Everyone seems to like them.
@ Rob Ripma - Good to know you had the chance to swim with our sea turtles here in Hawaii.
@ feefifoto - Yes I took the photo, seriously! Now get up. :-D
@ Dennis the Vizsla - I hadn't thought of using a photo like this for a wallpaper, but thanks for the idea.
@ Jenn Thorson - It is amazing -- something we never tire of.
@ Mojo - Yes, sea turtles can indeed live to a very old age. Most of the ones we see like this are, shall we say, "middle-aged" critters.
