Thank you!

The turtle reminds me of Northwest Coast art, for example:

You have gone further, though, and framed him very effectively. A striking view.

Yes, I agree! Interesting observation, and thanks, John.

This is great...

and I think.. but not 100% sure.. they are part of him ! so his body can stretch out and pull back !

Oo-er...I keep checking my double chin to make sure the same thing isn't happening to me!

Not sure I'd want to hug this hoody..!!

Cracking image though!

They're only small things that seem to have a hard time of it. Took it 20 mins to get across the road, dammit...thank God cars only put in an occasional appearance around here. I thought it was quite endearing, lol!

Beautifully captured; wonderful details.
Congrats on Explore.

Thanks Jaap. Good of you.

An odd looking critter, Phill...

Quite dapper in fact!

So möchte man sich auch mal zurück ziehen können!
Viele Grüße, Uwe

Thanks Uwe :-)

I won't look too close ;-)))
