Thanks to al for taking the time to look.

For me, the only problem is that the turtle would've been barely
detectible had I not read the title (but I found him after I looked for
him). You should have suited up, grabbed a waterproof Optio, gotten in the
water, and taken the shot from the turtle's perspective. Now *that*
would've been cool :o)

I really like this one, but I must admit, I'm a bit torn.

A tighter crop would make the turtle a bit more prominent, and I think
that would be a good thing.

However, a tighter crop would lose some of that lovely, lush verdant
background, and that's an important part of the photo.

Whatever, it's a lovely photo.

cheers,
frank
