Trip to the Sea Life Aquarium - Fantastic Display of Underwater Life -

in #photography7 years ago (edited)

A couple weeks ago, I had a chance to go to the Sea Life Aquarium in Auburn Hills, Michigan and snap some pictures of the marine habitats. There are quite a few of these aquariums all over the world.  Hope you enjoy!!  All photos were taken with my Samsung Galaxy s7. 

  

For some reason, this underwater statue reminded me of the guy in that Nickelodeon show "Legends of the Hidden Temple."  If you have watched that show, you'll probably know what I mean.  I'd like at least one person to tell me in the comments section that I'm not crazy.

The main tank stretched over our heads in one area.  I was able to snap this picture of a stingray going right over top of us.  It was awesome to see.  I'd never experienced anything like that before.

The jellyfish tank had a light that could be switched to around 8 different colors.  There was yellow, orange, blue, and a few more.  I liked these two colors best.

This one wrapped all the way around the room in a circle.  The part where you walked in was lifted, so the fish had to swim a bit upward to get above the entryway.  The school of fish went round and round and round that room.

This was a mini-touching-tank where you could feel the star fish.  

What good would any sea life exhibit be without . . DORY!

In Conclusion

We had a blast.  Have any of you guys been to the Sea Life Aquarium?  If so, what did you think?  I wonder if the other locations are a bit different?  I'm pretty sure they would be.

I live 5 miles from Auburn Hills and I have NEVER been to this place. oO How is that possible? Now I am doubly glad that you stopped by and read my work; if you hadn't, I wouldn't have seen this post and known about the Sea Life Aquarium that's five miles from me. Butterfly in full effect this morning :D

Nice!! Awesome. Yea, I am about an hour from Auburn Hills myself. Greetings to another Michigander on Steemit!! I am originally from the Detroit area though. haha, that's really cool!

My favorite six year old lives about an hour south from here. I make that trip whenever he FaceTimes me because he wants a fort built. Nephews. LOL If you're in that direction, we've probably passed each other on the road and never even knew it.

Awsome ! Nature at its best.

Wish we had something like that around here, but i guess it's too damned cold.

HAHA, I am sure there is something like that where you live, suitable to your climate.

Lol, well I have to admit , there are some places that try.

But I'm yet to see anything like those starfish around here ;)
