Prepare to dive! (Halichoerus grypus)

After seeing how ungainly the seals were on land, it was wonderful to see the effortless nature of their movement in water. I got plenty of shots of their dog like heads poking up in relatively static poses, looking at the boats with some curiosity. This shot was snapped just as the seal was going under. It appeals more to me as I think it gives a better sense of the seal's mastery in the water.
