 Have you read that book by Dr Seuss? I love it and read it to my boys while they were growing up and I now read it to my girls. They also like.

So cute; how frustrating it must be to have a shell.

A wonderful picture of a relatively unglamorous subject... very good focus, and great DOF as well. Nice job!

Great focus, I tried to get a picture of a turtle too but they were too fast. Seriously, they kept running away. Good photo, I wish you the best of luck.

Nice sharp photo. For me a tighter crop would bring this shot together. 6

That is a cool picture of a turtle! I love the clean, blurred background.

Very nice detail. Might have been a bit more interesting if shot from a diff angle. Maybe crop so he's not dead center in the shot. I like the lighting and the coloration - very monochromatic. 7

nice image...i personally would love to see a tighter crop on the turtle. for some reason, the background is distracting (to me). great color and nice crisp image.

Beautiful natural colors and great DOF on the turtle's head & legs. Only distractions to me (and it's a very minor thing) are the hot spot on the turtle's back and the DOF at the back of the little guy. Still, a wonderful & beautifully composed shot! 9
