Description

Another shot from the Lake Placid, FL canals. Thanks to everyone for all your input on how I should crop this in the FORUM. I like all of the variations to some degree, but decided to go with a format that really showed off the turtle's detail. I would have liked it to be a little sharper...but it is hard to do when you are in a moving boat. :) I hope everyone had a great weekend...have a super week! ----- Olympus C8080 and PhotoshopCS

What Paul rights is so true! This turtle has attitude and is checking you out for invading his/her spot. Saying, 'this is my branch, get away'. I really like this image because it has this drama between reptile and photographer confrontation. Have a great week Kort.

I like your 'solution' after all the 'FORUM' opinions. You decided using your sensibility and that's the only way to go :). The final result is excellent !!!
