"Monk Ballet"

Description

This is a case of the right place at the right time. The critically endangered Hawaiian Monk Seal - at last count there were approximately 1100 left & only 30 documented on this Island. My goal for this shot was to have the primary focus on the seal but include his rocky habitat without it being a distraction.
