These are really brilliant in the way that you do this, so different and I am most impressed.
I would love to see one of my photos like this. Well done.

A wonderful painting - those eyes really look real!!

Thanks so much for sharing this one with us turtle-rn - it's the very first image to come into the Gallery for this species. I'll upload it to the Opus article shortly.

BTW, I've just seen your comment to me on your last picture. If you wish to change your username here just get in touch with Admin and they will do it for you.
 
Great illustration.Thank you for posting this species and bringing back memories, seeing this one more than 25 years ago around midnight on the Kokoda Trail.
 
Kingshot : Thank you, glad you like it. I plan on working on some local species here once I'm done with my exotic species to-do list. ^^

Delia : Thanks, nice to hear this pic has been useful to this site.
re username, that's good to know. I'll get in touch with an admin.

Hans&Judy : lucky you! I can only dream of visiting Papua New Guinea someday, let alone watching this species in the wild. I'm glad this brought back good memories to you. ^^
