This snapper was moseying along at Three Rivers park in Woodbury on Saturday morning. He put up with me for a few minutes, and I was rude enough to get a nice little butt shot at the end of our encounter. Why on earth he was in the passing lane on a no-traffic morning, he wouldn't say. I was just pleased and grateful he smiled for his portrait.

And its a lovely smile, too, in its own inimitable way.
There's something so placid and calming about turtles.
Hi Carly,
That is quite a fantastic shot! The close-up of the claw is spectacular. They look so prehistoric. I left a message on your previous post about my entry on your blog hop. It had disappeared for a bout an hour and now its back on again. These linky links are temperamental it seems. Have a wonderful week?

fun photo, I thought it was an alligator at first but it's a cousin of one. lol!
I love the foot shot! He's got so many nooks and crannies! And he may need a pedi. Just saying.
beep beep!
Wonderful. I have not seen it so closely before.
Wow Sandy, that's an enormous snapper and great shots. At first I thought it was a dinosaur in the first shot.
Sandy: So cool, must have been going to lay some eggs.
Awesome closeups of the Snapper, Sandy!
He made me smile too. What a handsome prehistoric creature.
Those darn RV drivers!
Hahaha! Wonderful, Sandy! He's not likely to be charged with speeding even if he is in the passing lane.
Wonderful shots.
that is so cool. those shots are wonderfully captured.
Maybe it was moving day and he was in a hurry.
Isn't he handsome/she beautiful!
The first shot... it took me a while to figure out it is a tortoise. :) Great pics.
wonderful shots!
defintely not seeing that anywhere here in my neighborhood =)
What wonderful detail... Love the fact that he is taking life at his own pace.
Wow.. at first I thought you were having fun with Photoshop.. painting an eye on some tree bark. Very cool shots. He was very tolerant of the lady with the camera. ;)
