TURTLE CLIMBS A TREE?

 You could be forgiven for thinking this turtle had climbed out on the limb of a tree. He looks ready to jump off with the sky in the background, but in fact, he was perched on a log in a creek with the overcast sky reflected in the creek.
Even photographing him from directly above reflected the clouds in the sky and gives the water a weird, foamy look.  Two very different effects, taken around the same time from different angles.  My only regret was that the sky wasn't so overcast but I could change that I suppose, with help from photoshop.  Unfortunately, I'm a bit photoshop challenged. I'm glad I got the shots when I did because the log disappeared a day later, carried further downstream after rain.
