Turtle

I took this one of this turtle during a visit to the Aquarium in Durban . Did not use a flash .
Looking forward to your comments.
Just couldn't get the whole animal in the photo , his one leg is a bit cut off.

I like this shot... it would have been nice had you caught the last bit of the foot, but sometimes you have to take what you can get.... I love the way the turtle is separated from the background. Is that from the original picture, or did you have to play with it a bit?

I love the colors in this photo, and the texture of the turtle. The light is nice and really separates the subject from the background. The weak points I see are the cropped flipper and the fact that his eye is so dark, it kind of disappears into shadow on my monitor.
