Between photographing Katarina, Jackie, David and Rudy playing with the kids in Family Promise on Saturday, I photographed the turtles sunning themselves under the partly cloudy sky, and swimming around in the duck pond. Thinking about the turtles, and all the playing and happiness those kids and students were having spending the afternoon together reminded me of The Turtles song “So Happy Together” — www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zv85y08aA2w



There’s a place here that my kids love to go that has thousands of turtles sometimes. This is the best photo I can find but it doesn’t do justice. https://encrypted-tbn2.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcSUTwpcG_6DvNPCCWvuH5GeYB-a8V-efmSAanEAuAkPEqVbvDAY
Thanks, Rebecca. The photo does give a sense of lots of turtles. I can see how being there seeing a larger area with the same density of turtles would be impressive;• )
I used to have these kind of turtles back when I was younger. Love the black&white (with a little bit of colour)! 😉
Thanks, Erica!
You’re welcome, Tim! 😉
I like the black and white photo the best today – it has lots of texture and contrast. The turtles look like they are having fun floating in the green water.
