Galapagos Big 15

Galapagos BIG 15 captures the most iconic Galapagos wildlife.  I saw 10 of the Big 15 - what a thrill!  

Within my blog I have mainly used my own photos, which I am very pleased with (thanks for the new camera Rich xx).   Of course my friend and co-traveller Ian takes photos that are a cut above mine.  I have dedicated this post to Ian Phipps's photography of the wildlife we experienced in Galapagos.
