Really neat shot Alfred, amazing the amount of growth on that turtle, I like the feet out paddling motion too.

Alfred, I think this is neat also! I never saw one with any growth on it! Really nice!

[Fabs Forns]

I think this one rocks, like a floating oasis :)

He is a hairy fellow or she is a bearded lady. In any event, I like how you got the water so dark and monotone as that accentuates the turtle all that much more.

The luxuriant algae growth really makes this photo stand out, Alfred. I also like the sharpness and the lack of reflections in the water. Well done.

[Jackie Schuknecht]

Totally bizarre Al. Looks like a floating turf farm:)

Alfred,
Amazing. I seriously wonder what is the imact of so much growth. Good one.

Cheers,

Now that's cool. I guess this is what's meant by "an old mossback"? :o

Hi Alfred
Like how the eye is drawn to the colourful turtle's head and natural soft colours.
A feel good image.
Might have to change your url to Avian & Naturescapes !!!

Cool shot. The slicked back moss imparts a sense of forward motion. I really like the look of the water though. Really gives an impression of floating and depth.

Great shot! Talk about high quality camo. Really looks like a rock, I have never seen a turtle with that much growth on it.

[Per-Gunnar Ostby]

I love this shot - like something out of a fairy tale. The isalnd with a head and flippers!
