Turtles can be pretty creations in a photograph if properly. My belief is art is art, and all things can be considered true art forms. This is an excellent photograph with excellent clarity and definition in the reflection in the water, that really shows your skill as a photographer. The natural setting of the wetlands is captured nicely in your photo, displaying pleasant colors throughout your image. Very nicely done. Thanks

Stunning little turtle which is enjoying the sunshine - the reflection is great and your composition very nice. Colors appear to be natural and focus and dof is good.

This is a beautiful photo of this turtle! The photo is sharp and clear. I like that his shell is so clean. Sometimes when I see turtles their shells are all covered with mud. Great reflection in the water.

    I think it depends on where the turtles hang out, painted turtles like to swim and are on the move so maybe why they stay cleaner, thanks for your review

A lovely shot Lise its crisp and clear in every way especially on the turtles shell, the light is also ideal and those reflections adds that little extra to the image!

Comment from Lucien van Oosten


Nice capture, the main subject is captured nicely, the lighting is good fro thee most part, even with the hot spot on the shell, is not a detractor to the image works. (Normally not a good thing to have.)
I think because the rest has really nice color harmony.

Thank you for having allowed me to comment on you photo.

Love it! You have captured him basking in the sun. Great composition. It is an interesting double image with the reflection on the water. Well done!
