RickCollier > A Hawaiian Green Sea Turtle comes to the surface for a breath of air.  Protected by law in Hawaii, swimmers can collect massive fines for interfering with these turtles.  Though they can stay underwater for very long periods, the sea turtles do breathe air, so have to periodically surface for breath.

RickCollier > St. Eustatius (Statia) Underwater - As we neared the surface at the end of our scuba dive, we looked up to see that it was obviously raining very hard on the surface.  And then the huge great barracuda swam over us and was briefly silhouetted against the surface.  No doubt he was checking out the float that our divemaster put up to mark out spot during the safety stop.  © Rick Collier
