they cruise around in my area as well..they cruise up and down in the canals and Indian river..nice capture. the angle of the shot of this fella chilling on his back in the water is great. the capture of the light is great. the clarity is great. the presentation is balanced and eye appealing to the viewer. good eye and great job overall.

These are hard pictures to take and I did really good job.
The colors and details are good and the description helps to understand what is going on.

Hi ABG,The first glimpse of the small shot threw me for a loop! I was thinking this Manatee had an awful small head. It wasn't till I saw the larger image that I realized it was lying on its back! LOL
Looks like this guy is totally relaxing in the water
without a single care. Love the way he's just floating there. Your focus and lighting are very nice! This was a fun shot and a lot of fun to view. hanks for sharing! :o) Nancy

I love manatees. They have the cutest faces on them. I've never seen one up close and personal, so thank you for sharing this amazing animal. Composition shades colours and presentation is very well done.

O th8nk this has been a take with a challenge. So well done. It looks dark but it has definition in the shades of the Manatee. I had not heard of these so looked them up. I like the angle and that you captured in your view the jetty structure that cleverly lifts the presentation. I like your notes...something different is very welcome.

Such an amazing scene of this Manatee at rest. You have documented this scene well and this could be nice page of a book about Manatee. Informative artist's notes.

A very interesting and informative post. I have never seen a manatee, a marine mammal, in my life till now. You framed it well, and the light, shadows, colours, and composition worked well. Good effort!
