The story behind this print, in the words of photographer Renee Capozzola: "A young green sea turtle comes in close for a portrait in Maui, Hawaii where sea turtles thrive thanks to their strong legal protections. This image was taken at Mala Pier in Lahaina, which collapsed in 1992 during Hurricane Iniki and now serves as an underwater reef, encrusted with corals and providing a habitat for animals to rest, feed, and hide.  Numerous turtles also frequent the area to get cleaned.  This turtle is getting cleaned by two black tangs in the water column close to the surface."

This image, taken in French Polynesia, was part of Renee's collection of photographs submitted to the Ocean Portfolio Award at OPY2023, where she was awarded second place.
