California Sea Lion

California Sea Lion

Details & Comments

This guy swam right up to me. Thankfully, I had my camera armed and ready to go, so was able to capture this fleeting moment before he swam off under the water.

Overall, I think what grabs me most, as funny as it may seem, are the water droplets on the sea lion’s whiskers. I’d love to hear what grabs your attention in the photo, so let me know in the comments.

If you’d like to see some more photos taken at the zoo, you can see them here.




I like the water droplets as well, Jay. Secondarily the eyes being shut adds something cool/funny as well. Wonderful image!

The shut eyes adds something dramatic to the picture in my opinion. It looks like the animal is "acting".
