 For the "Snapshot" side challenge 09.
Some of the local fauna. These are supposed to be relatively rare, but I see them quite often. This one was along the edge of a dirt road this afternoon while I was on the way to a job.
P&S shot, macro mode.

It's a bit hard to have a sense of scale but it's an impressive tortoise.

The shot is tight, but I'm thinking this is a huge tortoise. It just looks huge.
