I've made two trips to the Galapagos to photograph the exotic life that inhabits the islands. The Galápagos Islands (named from the shells of saddlebacked Galápagos tortoises) are an archipelago made up of 13 main volcanic islands, 6 smaller islands, and 107 rocks and islets. The Galápagos archipelago is part of Ecuador, a country in northwestern South America. The islands are famed for their vast number of endemic species and the studies by Charles Darwin that led to his theory of evolution by natural selection.
