Allow me to present "Rosa Mota"! For those who know her and for thos who don´t here goes a short story:
In 1982, in Atenas, she bacame Champion of the Europe exactly in the passage made for Filipíades soldier to announce the victória on Tebas in the battle of Maratona. This was the first time she ran a Maratona.
In 1983 she was 4 place in the world champions, 3 place in the olimpics of 84 and also won tha Maratona of chicago for two times, 83 and 84! Well she is a famous athlete, who goes shopping not by car or bike but...RUNNING! Yes it´s true!
Ok, but this one as done nothing in her life! This one just eats, swimms and sleeps and it´s our family pet, a small but also big turtle compared to her companions! I caught her here, fighting with that small shrimp while the small guy was singing "Baby, you really got me know, you got me going...."!

Critiques very much apreciated!

¡Muy Buena composición, Bruno! Rosa aparece en todo su esplendor aquí. La captura es muy original y tiene mucha fuerza, aunque creo que le falta un pequeño ajuste en post-proceso. Mira a ver que te parece el Workshop :-)

Excellent composition, Bruno! Rosa appears here in all her splendor! The capture of her expression is great, though I think that a little post-process work could do marvels to it. See my workshop and tell me what you think :-)

Very cute capture of Rosa Mota. Like the side on view, and the oxygen bubbles at the water line. Although a bit on the dark side, the composition is very good.

Really nice Bruno. I'm glad you have the water line in the picture. It does so much for the over all apperance. I don't think it would have been as succecfull without this. Very well done. Second thing i like is the eye, so focused on the shrimp. The colours and the pattern of her skin is also well captured. Great job.

Excellent shot Bruno. Great detail..

This is great Bruno. There is so much I like about it. The patterns on the turtle`s neck, the air bubbles and the relection of the eyes. She has a look of determination in trying to reach the food.

What a lovely picture. I've wondered how people manage to get so many points at TE, and being part of TL begining, I see clearly how some of us start fast to collect well DESERVED high scores. CONGRATS for this one!!!

A great capture, Bruno, and a great note. Amazing contrast of colors, very well done.

Charming this tortoise! I like the angle of the recording and the light on the water. I find colours a little bit dark also I like the work of Bruno which adds an impact to your work.

Charmante cette tortue! J'aime l'angle de la prise de vue et la lumière sur l'eau. Je trouve les couleurs un peu sombre aussi j'aime bien le travail de Bruno qui ajoute un impact à votre oeuvre.

Boy, Rosa Mota surely has changed since I last saw her run ... Great photo, Bruno, I particularly like the turtle's eyes and how they are reflected multiple times. The lines and patterns on the animal's head and neck are also well captured.

I'm sure this creature will appreciate the chewing gum-looking shrimp, if she gets it. The clarity and composition are very nice here, and I really enjoy seeing the critter this close.

o ponto de vista escolhido está fantástico, as cores estão soberbas e o momento capturado é incrível. preciso dizer mais? ;)

ah vraiment excellente cette prise de vue! bravo ( une fois de plus ;-) )

Funny capture, it looks as if you taught this tortoise to balance a tidbid on her nose - and she looks really focussed on the job-in-hand ;-)

Really fine close up of your turtle Bruno! :-) She looks so concentrated on the little guy...I agree with Zandra that the water line works nicely here for the overall look. The yellow colour of the shrimp is a lovely bright spot. Very well seen and captured!

very good shot! tight crop , great focus . the water line is amazingly crisp! bravo Bruno

Very cool Bruno. You caught this one perfectly! The silver drops on the surface, the pattern on her neck. Beautiful photo! Well done.

É realmente uma fantástica fotografia e gosto em particular do reflexo dos olhos na água.
Por certo,aquele pedaço não lhe vai escapar!;)

Très belle réussite.

Fantastic macro of Rosa in action through such unexpectedly clear water. She has lovely stripes and lives in a remarkably clean and tidy environment. Your comment is great fun.

Rosa Mota is so cute. I love this picture and I love turtles. I think they are so beautiful. Anyway, this shot is funny and well captured. I love Rosa's expression. She's probably saying "Get in my belly". I also like the bubbles floating on the water. But that shrimp sure looks like a popcorn to me.

Thanks for sharing and your note is funny too. Now I can't get that song out of my mind.... :-)

que tartaruga simpática :)
esse close na cara dela ficou muito bom!

Hello Bruno! What an unusual shot! Great POV, very good detail on the turtle's neck, mouth and eye. Love the bubbles. Amusing notes. Great capture!

Grande foto.
