April 16, 2006: Juvenile Painted Turtle

Windsor, ON Canada


This juvenile Painted Turtle was found by my mother
Its actual size was just slightly larger than a Canadian quarter
It was walking across a roadway in a local park (Malden Park)
My mom rescued it from danger and brought it home
Sharon and I returned it back to the wild shortly thereafter
To a safer place in our local wildlife preserve, Ojibway Park, where Painted Turtles are indigenous
Of course, we had to take a few photos of him first. :)
I captured some other macro images today, which will be posted at http://www.phofan.com shortly.

Think the use of flash helps here a great deal. and the f stop really focuses all of the pic well.

Is this glamour or nude?? Details are excellent and it's so small.
