I caught these two on Christmas Eve and just I am just getting around to working on the image. It is funny how sometimes animals are oblivious to eachother. I thought it was funny. What do you think?......

Don't you love catching these unexpected scenes? Turtle is lucky - baby turtles are known to be on Heron's menu! Good eye for spotting this and composing a little scene of nature for us!

Another great outdoors capture Garrett. If that would have been here at Christmas, they would be frozen in more then time.

Cameras are like people--sometimes they lose focus.
Wow this is a stunning photo and to see the turtle next to a bird that if it had no shell would be dinner is great.Beautiful close up and stunning detail as well.

My thanks to all who leave comments for my work and to those of you who like one enough to make it a favourite. To touch just one person that way makes each image worthwhile. . . . . . . . . .. . . .

Beautiful close up. I hope the turtle doesn't eat the bird. It could be Bird nest soup. Ha, Ha. Good shot Garrett.

"Go for the fish. Done in a lightly seasoned pond reduction sauce. It's excellent, I've heard!"

'I hope Painted turtle is not on the prix fixe menu. Those herons are tight with their purse strings..'
Or..

Funny and intriguing shot, Garrett.
Not to mention, wonderfully composed as well.
Great natural colour and well-exposed, as per your usual.
Caveats?
Think you could mask and sharpen Ms. or Mr. Turtle.. some.
Judging from the resolution size, it would appear that you cropped.
However, given the image quality that is still more than apparent ... believe it would stand up readily to a slight Smart/Unsharp Mask/High Pass sharpening. (One of.)
That said..
And but of course, thank you for sharing this encounter with us. :o)
