Artist's Comments

I was driving around Sunday evening and came across another Box Turtle crossing the road. This one is a little different than the first one I found([link] & [link])...this one has red eyes and red on its scales, where the other one had yellow eyes and yellow on its scales. I had to be really patient with this series of pictures since I had to stop frequently to get out of the road for passing traffic. I'm sure I got many odd looks since I was laying on my stomach on the road!

Here's a link to another variation, without a fill flash and different white balance: [link]

Hope you enjoy!

Mathematics, rightly viewed, possesses not only truth, but supreme beauty – a beauty cold and austere, without appeal to any part of our weaker nature...sublimely pure, and capable of a stern perfection. B. Russell

Cool shot! Well done:thumbsup: :)
The turle has a great expression it it's face.

Thank you, sir! That expression is probably an expression of frustration towards me!
