I got right down in the sand with the 200-400 on Hood Island to create this eye level image of a Marine Iguana.   As always, the more you want it the more you will get it.  I asked Juan if it would be OK to remain at Punta Suarez near the landing site with two other eager clients for an additional 30 minutes or so.  He got the bulk of the group onto the pangas and headed back to the Samba and then came back for us. <\/p>\n<h3>Anything Fishy?<\/h3>\n<p>Do you see anything Photoshop fishy about the image above?
