I am reminded of a poem writen by an American Indian: "Know the animals. For you do not know you fear and what you fear you destroy." I like this capture because it demonstrates the relevence of this poem. I am well aware of the Hawaiian Green Sea Turtle (Honu) and the need to protect their environment and I am happy to see you are teaching your children the same. Wonderful capture Gina! #10316094

What a fabulous capture, Gina! I used to live on the island of Oahu! Isn't it beautiful? I guess things have changed a lot since I lived there! Your daughters (I'm assuming that's who they are) look so adorable from the back! I think they want to get the turtle moving! Ha! Ha!
CONGRATULATIONS on your two Finalist Awards this month!!!!! WTG!!! :)
