 This is my Box Turtle - 'SOUP'
He lives in my backyard and loves to eat snails and strawberries. He sleeps in a hole in the ground and is always moving and curious. I set the camera on the ground and he started to check it out so I just kept clicking away. This is the best one.
Very little PP - just basic adjust levels, contrast & color.

yes, these guys are indeed creatures of longevity. Lacking the deeper dof I would have simply gone closer with more head. 6
