One hot and humid evening my husband, daughter and I ventured to our local town for ice cream treats. On our return home, we caught sight of this snapping turtle alongside the gravel road. Seconds after parking the vehicle, Keisha and I dashed out the door with the camera, hoping to get a few good shots before the clouds broke loose with rain.
After taking a few quick shots, I reluctantly relinquished the camera over to Keisha, who bent down to an eye-level shot of the turtle. Since Keisha had been my instructor on our photo shoots, I objected, "Hey, you didn't tell me to get down like that and take them that way!! I want to try that; give me the camera!!"
She retorted, "You had your chance!!!" At the same moment, the clouds began depositing huge drops of rainfall on us. My daughter barely commenced taking her photos, glanced my way, and formed a quizzical expression on her face. She asked, "Mom, what's going on with your hair?!? It's standing straight up!!" Then she added, "We have to get back to the house now; that's the first sign of lightning!!"
We raced back to the house to safety bringing our photo session to an abrupt end.
