Such wonderful creatures tortoises . .

For me greater saturation and a tighter crop would have made this a punchier shot.

aww! What an adorable tortoise! Good crispness and clarity, especially on its body below its neck, where it is very finely detailed. To improve in my opinion it is slightly to closley cropped for the angle the tortoise is at. :-) good photo, love the title !
