The stick echoing the turtle's head's shape is distracting... but I love the moment you've captured.


I may or may not be voting, so please do not equate my comment with any score.

Great find and unique. Fitting image to add to a story about this animals habits. I'd crop out the bottom left shadow and left border middle green stalk, thus tighter on head and lunch. Is that a shell casing below the worm? Perhaps with that tighter crop removing some of the other distracting elements it could well be used.

Cool looking turtle. Light seems a bit harsh.
