hysterical that each is looking in a different direction. the background is too busy and dull in appearance. Next time, ask them to pose on a solid foesrt green mat - they will really "pop" then. :-)

Fun picture. The highlights on the turtle's backs are distracting. I think you could improve this by darkening and increasing the contrast.

cute shot, seems a bit flat, could use some contrast to make the turtles stand out more.

The sun seems to have blown them out a little. Still, nice work.

Nice idea, I like the different positions of their bodies, makes the shot look very natural

I know this are hard subjects for they are usually sun theirselves in bright sunlight. Need to darken the contrast. I don't know what camera you are using to help you out.
