Description

Actually, a Northern Diamondback Terrapin, seen in an aquarium at Hammonasset State Park, CT. I took a few quick shots with my cell phone, but when using my regular camera, he (or she!) did not strike any poses as interesting as one of the first I took.

Specific Feedback

All comments and suggestions are welcome and thanks for viewing.

Technical Details

Samsung Galaxy S10e, ISO 200, 1/40, f 1.5, 26mm. Post processing included adjustments to exposure, contrast, and dehaze.

This is such a fascinating turtle Jim. Your cell phone did well to get good color and details.

Thank you @Ed_Williams , I was pleased with the results also. He became very active shortly after this shot and the numerous frames I caught didn’t show the same personality.
