Re: PESO:: Green Sea Turtles
Thanks. Yes, I'm not set up more much post processing here -- too much to do! They are not snappers but very gentle vegetarians.

Re: PESO:: Green Sea Turtles
I hope the state of Hawaii is able to step up and take up the slack. The National Seashore here in North Carolina is affected by the government shutdown and in addition to reports of people trashing the facilities, there have been several reports of people in 4WD vehicles driving out on sections of the beach that are normally closed to protect turtles & migratory birds.

Contrary to some others I actually like the composition and the inclusion of bits of the other turtles, it shows its part of a group but focuses on the one individual. I think there is a good balance to the composition but I do wish there were just a wee wider strip of sand between the rock and the edge of the frame in the bottom right. I like that the back portion of the shell mimics the angle of the profile of the rock. Is it resting its head there because the rock is warm? I like the shot, it says "Yeah I'm just going to rest here a moment." Bruce N. -- 'It's an old story,'Ryumin said. 'Something like that actually happened once; I feel sure of it.

Re: PESO:: Green Sea Turtles
Thanks for looking Jack. I agree with you, but the turtles were gathered together in a tight group, with one's fin often resting on its neighbor's back. Much like the sea lions on Pier 39 in SF. I just tried to focus on an interesting one and exclude as much of its surroundings as I could.
