It looks like its party time. LOL. Look at all them turtles enjoying the same rock. Stacking on top of each other trying to get the best spot. Gorgeous details and colors and I love the dof of the lily pads. I have seen turtles on longs and rocks before, but this is so cool the way they are stacking up.
