It is of course the fine reflections you have captured doing this photo more than anything, but the turtle is also truly Sweet, and the light is falling on it in such a lovely way.

The turtle is standing out Sharp and well defined against the background, and it is such Clear and well defined details to be seen. The exposure is very good.

The format you have cropped the photo into is working well and the turtle has got a fine placement within the frame. This is a lovely and well taken photo With a good DOF, and I wish you Luck With the contest.

Great entry for the Outdoor Photo Contest. The reflection really add a wonderful element to the scene.

The position in the frame is just right. The colors are nicely saturated and the focus is sharp.

Very well done and I wish you all the best in the contest ~ Steve

This is awesome! It's so hard to imagine seeing a turtle in a pond like this. We don't have turtles here in Alaska.
You have captured this beautiful turtle very well!
Good focus, this image is sharp and clear, exposure is correct, the colors and tones are natural. The turtle is perfectly placed in this scene, I see good detail over every part of it. It's a wonderful reflection on the water too!
Well composed and presented!
Best wishes to you in this contest!
