Challenge 791: Tortoiseshell
Another one from the Cambridge Museum of Zoology: this rather fine tortoise. The shell has been beautifully preserved, but the patient is on the critical list. Can you bring this critter back to life? I'll leave it to you to interpret that as you choose. High res is here.  |

Re: Challenge 791: Tortoiseshell
I've started a new job, and am doing some volunteer graphics work, and to top it off I have a cold. I'm probably not going to have a submission this week again but will try to look in. This week's subject looks like an alligator snapping turtle. They are an endangered species that lives in the southeastern U.S. and grow to be 30 kilos or more (70 lbs). _________________ I'm still learning. |

David, your entry has...well...panache: very slick and professional, and I love it 
Sara good luck in your new job ( which is what?). Sorry about the cold, but do people get colds in sunny California? 
PS no entry yet, as the site owner has yet again chosen another mummified monstrosity

Yes, Ben, but doesn't it need a mock turtle soup to go with it?

Re: Challenge 791: Tortoiseshell
For two frames that's surprisingly effective. The background obviously has limitations but the tortoises are great - although they must be the fastest on earth!! _________________ The subtlety and conviction of any Photoshop effect is invariably inversely proportional to the number of knobs on it ....... |

Re: Challenge 791: Tortoiseshell
Unfortunately my PC decided to die a couple of weeks ago... So I thought I would try this one on my iPad Pro using the Photoshop App! I’m really not impressed on how limited it is!!! I actually had to think hard about uploading this one as I think it looks more like something that was done on MS Paint
Hopefully my PC will be fixed soon and I can redo it! _________________ We made a promise we swore we'd always remember, No retreat no surrender |

Re: Challenge 791: Tortoiseshell
David, love the perspective but not sure I'd want to be on that operating table -- a tortoise ride- quite unique Ben - very clever Michael - well done 2 framer Anna - well done as usual Chris - I believe I see a Steve Caplin under that mask As for me I was very undecided where to go wth this: http://vimeo.com/389112764 |
