The first caption was about the SUBJECT of the photo:
A young green turtle
swimming around Pom Pom Island
in the Celebes Sea, Sabah . Green sea turtles
are drawn to the sea grass which forms a major part of their diet. Pom Pom
Island has lost a lot of
coral to bomb fishing, but the conservation group TRACC are working on coral
replanting, attracting more marine life back to the island.
The second was a caption about the photographic elements of the image:
The angle the turtle is
taken at indicates that the photographer must have been swimming alongside, and
the all important eyes are clear in the image, despite the front not being the
main focus. There is evidence of other marine life in the background, and of
the deep sea being ahead, adding an element of mystery to the image.
