Karen - a well deserved win - I think this is a fabulous shot. Just goes to show that with the right shot you don't need something big and exotic to capture peoples attention - just a really great picture !!

Deb - loved this the moment I saw it (and read the title). I wasn't sure at first if it was you - but the spire looked German, and there was a Pigeon sitting happily in the shot - I mean c'mon . . your finger prints all over it :- )

Genuinely a shame this didn't score better - but you must have got the highest number of fav's in challenge - and that's pretty impressive !

Nice idea - there is somtheing wonderfully prehistoric about Turtles and Tortoises up close.

This might have benefitted from a little more DoF so that his whole face was in focus ?

A good crop and nice close capture.

I think there is a lot of potential in here that might have been brought out with additional post processing.

Is it a Harris Hawk ?
