"Wise Beyond Years"
The moss on this young florida redbelly turtle made me think of him as much older and wiser than his relatively small size would suggest  :). Taken while kayaking in beautiful Blue Spring State Park, Florida. Thanks for looking!

It is said that grass doesn't grow on a busy street, so perhaps not so wise after all - just slow!  8)

Carol! I'm hurt that you could think so lowly of my turtle.  :mrgreen:

Hi

Perhaps he is one of those ninja turtles in camouflage (LOL)

Seriously though a good image, and an excellent job of work from a Kayak


All the best
Matthew

I'm enjoying the colors and patterns of this image. I like that you included enough of the setting to capture that, for me it is more appealing than just a tight portrait would be.
