The world according to me....

My friend Johan recently asked me if I had any photos of a loggerhead skull. He wanted one to show his colleagues who were preparing an exhibit on sea turtles at the Palais de Decouverte in Paris, France:

I realized that I didn't have any photos of turtle skulls, so I took several and sent them to Johan. Of course, he wasn't satisfied with the angle of the photos -"just a little bit more from the side and back, so you can see the brain case in relation to the skull," he wrote. As I took more shots, I realized that it was a good opportunity to take photos of all the skulls and upload some into the seaturtle.org image library:

For those of you lucky enough to visit Paris between now and June 26, be sure to visit the sea turtle expo, presented by Garef Océanographique.
