Oh, the cuteness. <3
Amazing photograph. I love the sharpness of this shot, taking pictures underwater is quite the challenge,
even through glass. (which I guess you did?)

I also really dig how the background is green-ish and misty,
it makes Zoe stand out well with her brown-black-white colors.

Thank you very much! Yes I took this through an underwater view window. :) It was very hard, since in dark surroundings, my camera likes to act up and not take that photo. So I was happy when this young one came to interact. She was really playful.

Hey, no prob. :)
Yeah, it's really hard to take a good photograph through glass, especially
when it's dark, and when you can't use the flash 'cause it makes the glass all shiny. ;A;
Lucky you, that she decided to come so close. ;P

:) I agree. I tried so many times to use flash or a different position at the glass but it is not possible with flash most time.

Yup, I understand that it probably took a lot of tries before getting it right. :>

Awesome clarity here! Love the lighting and how the sea lion fills up the whole frame by that slight outturn of the flippers. The contrast between her and the back ground is really great as well.
