Ahh, turtle must be in the air, Ellen. I just edited one like this yesterday. I have a soft spot in my heart for turtles because we used to have them as pets for many years. These red eared sliders are terrific! #9401324

That IS so cute, Ellen. Love the diagonal line and you captured the details perfectly. I was wondering if there was a slide at the top that they ride back into the water. #9401470

Into my favorites my dear friend. This is so cool and so well photographed. I love the clarity of the shot, the amazing details and textures, gorgeous colors. For the spectacular look perfect timeing to see them one by one going up the side of the stone for some sunning and to have that one in the water waiting its turn is one in a million. Incredible girl.
Annie and I hope your day will be a beautiful one. #9401543

Ellen, this is so cute. The little guy is trying to get up to enjoy the sun. The little one is saying "come on get your little behinds up there so I can get out of the water". Beautiful colors and details .
