What: Green Sea Turtle (Chelonia mydas) on a Malaysian reef.
She decided to head in the opposite direction from the divers in the background!

What a great picture. A sea turtle in its right element. Perfect
Make sure you enlarge the photo to see the remora stuck to the turtles back...cool
Awesome shot! Love the colours - but mostly the pattern on that beautiful turtle!
I enlarged, and it is really amazing!
outstanding capture.
To answer your question: yes - I can see the remora! Didn't know what it was at first - had to look it up after you mentioned it! Didn't know the name in english! But google is so helpful! :)
Another superb photo! Happy WW

Beautiful turtle. Though she might be wise to head in the opposite direction of humans.
That is a totally awesome clear look at the markings on the shell. the very best I've seen and I've considerable online looking.
Love all the blue. Great photo!
Absolutely amazing. Beautiful. I love the patterns on the shell.

Both photo and creature ~ beautiful!
What a fantastic photo! It's absolutely gorgeous.
Wow, that is a beautiful turtle. Nice picture. My WW this week is also rather blue.
Natural, peaceful, and calming. I love this photo. Plus, I learned about 'remora' today!
That's a fantastic shot of the incredible turtle. Your posts never fail to impress me.
That shell is gorgeous! Actuall the whole photo is!
That is a fantastic shot! Initially I was very concerned about the "wound" on the shell. Glad to see all is well.
Comparing the size of my mini terrapins to that sea turtle, mine is looking so TINY :)
Lovely shot, as usual!
Thanks everyone. We love having you visit, and we appreciate your feedback.

What a beautiful pattern she has on her shell. The lighting and everything is so perfect, Bobbie - excellent shot!
A great image of a very beautiful sea turtle. Always am so impressed at how sharp your underwater photography is. Fantastic!
What a noble creature and great symbol how we should treat nature, with respect, enjoyment, and revelry.
What a gorgeous creature, with that sunburst pattern on its carapace!
Btw, this "Turtle" has started a new blog, "La Dulse Vita", in honour of her new Bay of Fundy home. Names are changed, but I've brought my blogroll with me!
What a great picture, thanks.
