"Symetrie"

The Story: A Green turtle swimming in the blue of Mayotte Lagoon, Indian Ocean. I wanted to catch the total symétrie of the turtle from above to catch all the shapes of its body. For me it’s also a way to remind people that sea turtle are in endangered species and need actions for their preservation. During the last lockdown due to Covid more than 350 were find killed by poachers on the beach. 

Location: France, Mayotte, Tahiti Beach

Equipment Used: Lumix S1, Natural light, No Strobe, Lens Leica 24-105
