Sunshine on Our Shoulders Makes us Happy

Description

I found this trio sunning themselves in a small pond way off the beaten path. It was in the middle of the day, brilliant sun made for lots of glare, but I didn't care...the sun was finally shining!

Thanks, Mel. Yes, as soon as they discovered me, one by one they slipped into the water. The log was totally covered at one point in time, but I tried to get in closer. Need to work on my stalking technique a little! #4252554

Fantastic capture. Turtles usually dive at the sight of camera, I know. Well done on Photoshop effects too. You could call this one "So Happy Together", a song by The Turtles. #4291183

Thanks Rob for commenting! Yes, I do remember the song! I was probably a sophomore in high school when that was a big hit! That song takes me waaaay back! #4291882
