I don't know much about turtles Ellen. However, there are some questions, why the two different shells? Are they two different species? Are they male and female. Now when you took this cute photo, you had no idea that it would bring on a battery of questions and you didn't know just how dumb one of the BPers is. LOL Great shooting Ellen. #8536524

Ellen- I have tried a few times to get some good turtle photos but they are always to far away to get a good shot. I love the way you were able to get real close to these two and I just love their features and colors. They are so cute. Love the smile on the faces as they seem to be so happy and content. Another thing I really enjoyed is the slant of the rock and the diagonal look. Such beutiful work my dear friend.
Annie and I hope your weekend goes by slowly, you get a chance to enjoy, to relax, to take in life. #8564626
