I suspect that it is because we often notice them when they are swimming and on their way to the surface for a breath.
A Green Sea Turtle can hold it's breath for up to 5 hours. But when you gotta breath you gotta breath.... so you can't be hanging around while some diver takes your pixture.
But every once in a while we catch them on their decent and if they are on their way to a spot to lay down or feed.... they are more than happy to let you tag along and take pixtures.
This guy was doing just that. We saw him as he swam towards us and lay down to rest very near to where we were.
Once he was in place he was more than happy to pose for pixtures. I took more than a dozen different shots.... and only really stopped because I could think of another angle to photograph from.
