Description

We just got back from the Freedom Festival in the next town, and while we were there I decided to take a few photos. These are with my cheap, less-than-a-hundred-dollars Nikon and I don't think they turned out too bad. I have a better Nikon DSLR, but it it heavy with my broken arm it is hard hold.This turtle lives in the Fenton Mill Pond. I might shoot something tomorrow with the big camera. Have a great day! Thanks for stopping by!

Hmmmmmmmm. What type of turtle Sherrie? Looks like a type of snapping turtle? Just decided to check the new uploads because I am STILL NOT getting any emails from Rendo and I found this. ;-)

Never seen a turtle under water in a similar scenario Sherrie. Seen them in waves in the sea but never in freshwater like this looks. Steve ;)

Excellent shot! I love turtles! I live in the woods on the edge of the Florida wetlands. I have about five gophers that live in my yard. They are protected by the state. I will have to post a picture. Hugs to you sweetie.

Oooooo - that's a big ol' snapper you've captured, Sherrie! And not to be trifled with - he'll take off a finger in a heartbeat! Great shot, and I hope your arm heals up soon and completely.
