Hi Barbara, I like the way these two turtles are facing you! I also like the way they were a little above you when you took the shoot! Focus and lighting are perfect! You can see all the detail! Very nicely done and a joy yo view! :o) Helvi

Excellent shot Barbara!

The colors and markings of these two turtles are bright and sharply focused.

The details of the head and especially the eyes are well seen.

As is this is a fine piece of photography. The camera settings are spot on perfect.

The only thing I might consider is getting rid of the dark smudge in the lower left and in the upper third.

I like the positioning of the turtles, it appears as though they are marching in step.

Very well done, thanks for sharing... Bob

An absolutely adorable visual presented here of these little turtles. They are one of my most favourite animals. Composition, shades, tones, background, and angle sets this mood perfectly. Well done thank you for sharing.

    I love turtles, too! I was walking on a path next to a pond when I took this photo. Many people think the background is sky, but it's actually water. Thank you so much for the great review!

Barbara you have done a fine job capturing these two sun bathers basking in the noonday sun. DOF is just right to keep them both in focus. I like that you got the angle of the log just right, looking up at the turtles brings this picture over the top. Thank you for sharing. Ray

A good looking nature image presented here! Your fine and interesting composition has me wondering were you lying on the ground when you got this shot, or was the log high up? Well taken!

Hi Barbara, first of all, if I could give you two sixes, I would. That's how much I love this. One in a million and a real treat for the eyes. Colour, texture, clarity and composition are first class. Love it, thanks for sharing, cheers.

This is a good-looking nature shot here. A very clear and well-focused photograph showing wonderful detail and colors of these turtles climbing out of the water.
