Judge’s Comments:
The lonely baby turtle must cross what appears as an immense distance to begin his young life. The tone of the photograph is cool suggesting early morning or late evening. The little turtle is wonderfully placed in the lower right foreground with the sea appearing as a thin strip at the top, with a vast distance in between. This image creates a feeling of hopefulness and sympathy for the plight of this little one. We are reminded of our journey home and primal struggle for life
