Wildlife: Enjoying the sun

SUNNING TURTLE, STANLEY PARK, VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA

One rock in the water of Stanley Park’s Lost Lagoon had six of these turtles on it. That was a great photo subject. But this solitary turtle on a water-surrounded rock provided such a clean, simple composition that I like it even better. Lost Lagoon is a great place to see wildlife in Vancouver. On the day I made this picture, I also photographed mallard and wood ducks, a raccoon in a tree and a great blue heron.
Nikon D90, 70-300 mm. lens.

  Thanks, Brian. The water was kinda brown, but I thought this blue hue would be a lot more attractive.
