22nd Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Natural World
Heron Island Flying Eagle Ray
I was studying Marine Biology in Australia, and our program was participating in research on Heron Island, which is part of the Great Barrier Reef. I sat outside during low tide, watching sharks and stingrays swim close to shore. I was able to capture this photo of an Eagle Ray jumping out of the water by following it's movement with my camera!
