On Saturday Mark and I had an epic day/night date in Atlanta. We headed to the Georgia Aquarium, the world’s largest aquarium! Our favorite part was the Ocean Voyager exhibit, where you could walk through a tunnel and gaze at all the gentle giants! Ocean Voyager has whale sharks (the largest fish species in the world) and two manta rays (the only manta rays in a U.S. aquarium, ever!) There were also lots of stingrays, goliath grouper, and hammerhead sharks. I loved taking photos of these amazing animals and really wish I didn’t have to photograph them through glass! Now I really want to scuba dive with my camera! (Photo note: all of these were taken with the amazing 35 1.4L on the 5D).
In the Georgia Explorer exhibit we saw the super cute loggerhead sea turtle!
I want one of these in my living room…
Playing with rays and sharks…
My second favorite exhibit was the Tropical Diver where we got to see the amazingly beautiful jellyfish.
Favorite shot of the day…
The Aquarium has weddings in their amazing ballroom and I HOPE BEYOND ALL HOPE to photograph one there someday!
We wrapped up the night at CraftBar, one of Tom Colicchio’s restaurants. Incredible.
