Relaxing in the Sun - Weekend Reflections


A warm rock in the sun, does it get any better than this?

If relaxing turtles are not your thing I also saw this fellow watching the ducks and soaking up some rays.

For more reflections of our world visit James at Weekend Reflections.

The extended, splayed out legs of the turtle just made me smile. Now that's relaxing! ;)

YOu can tell that turtle is definately relaxed and kickin' back! It is my favorite of all.

Lovely choice for Weekend Reflections!

Nice shots all. I like the ripples in the second one. I saw some big old turtles sunning on logs in the lake this week but I didn't have my longest lens with me. Next time I will.

Matty said...

Nature and reflections in the same shots! I like how the turtle seems to be checking himself out in the water.

Judy said...

I love the reflection of the hind end of the turtle! And the reflection of the pigeon, too!
