Love it!!! This is not an everyday scene. Nicely shot under difficult conditions. I'm surprised that the P900 was able to get through that glass. But the photo turned out quite well.

Homosassa is a great park to visit. I love watching the rangers feed the manatees. This is a great shot from the underwater viewing area. I know what those glass panels usually look like, so you did a great job considering the conditions.
