Galapagos Islands ~ May 2007 - After many years of wanting, I finally took a wonderful trip to view (often up close and personal) the wildlife of the Galapagos Islands, spending 15 days island hopping with 14 others and a Naturalist guide. Armed with my new Canon 5D SLR & 100/400 lens, I was able to capture some amazing moments.

From top left: Galapagos Penguin, Greater Flamingo, Galapagos Giant Tortoise, Red-billed Tropicbird, Blue-footed Booby, Striated Heron, Land Iguana, Red-footed Booby, Great Blue Heron, and (title bar) Feeding Frenzy of Blue-footed Boobies.
