Sport Diver- Turner Forte Photography

James captured this free diver swimming after a Manta Ray down in Baja, Mexico.  It has such great movement and intrigue… Definitely makes me want to be there!  Check it out in this month’s Sport Diver

Outside Magazine & Turner Forte Photography

Pick up the current October issue of Outside Magazine and see some of our photos.  On page 10, you’ll find James’s amazing shot of Mobula Rays underwater.  This shot was taken in the middle of the day so it should be really bright, but instead the rays have blocked out all the light.  With this dense cloud of rays swimming overhead, James says it was like an eclipse!

In a way different part of the world, here are a couple shots from Marfa, Texas.   If you ever find yourself on the lone highways of West Texas, this artsy and eclectic town is a must!

Baja Gray Whale photographs in San Ignacio Lagoon

Whale watching in Baja California is one of the greatest adventures anyone can do!

We visited San Ignacio Lagoon and stayed with Baja Ecotours.  The Staff at Campo Cortez exceeded our expectations and made our trip great. During the months of December through April Gray Whales winter birthing and mating sanctuary is the San Ignacio Lagoon. Included are some of the many photographs we took above and below the water.

More photos will be posted on our stock site here soon.
