"This painting of a crocodile under water was a lot of fun. While visiting the Alligator Farm in St. Augustine, Florida I took some photos of the crocodile through the underwater glass windows. This is their largest crocodile named Maximo. This "Saltie" was brought in from Australia in 2003 weighing 1250 lbs. and 15 ft. 3 in. long.He was hatched in 1971 and is expected to live 60-80 years. He was so impressive with his size and really took my breath away. I was amazed how something so big could move so smoothly and effortlessly under water. He was swimming towards me and then put his foot down to turn with his huge tail following behind. It looked as if he was dancing."
