I looked it up.
There are several collective nouns for a group of turtles. These are: a bale of turtles, a dole of turtles, and a nest of turtles

Appreciate you looking that up. I wondered what a group of them was called.
How about a soup of turtles?

A sunflower about to burst open. Canon Powershot A550 from 2008.
Fog coupled with white out conditions moving in.
G9 ,14-140@15 , f5.6@1/2000 , ISO 200
How do you like the 14-140? I’ve often thought about getting a superzoom, but I keep holding out.
It's really not bad . Got it to have something relatively small that will cover most focal length ranges for when I take quick trips out of state to visit family .I have the 1st iteration of the 3.5-5.6 version .58 mm filter size . No claims to weather sealing like the newer version , if that matters . Size wise , it's a bit smaller , and thinner , than the 12-60 PL that came with my G9 . There's no manual/auto focus switch , just one to turn on/off the stabilizer . Never tried manual focusing . The image quality is pretty good , but I suspect there's a lot of onboard correction going on unseen. I finally got it to flare today by shooting into the sun shining through some trees . This time the hood failed me
. Probably because the sun's low this time of year , used it a bunch last summer with no problems . I'll post the flared image here tomorrow for the world to hold up to ridicule .
Cats love boxes, don't they?! He looks comfy and cozy!Finn being creative
I found the 14-140 a good allrounder, not stellar, but very adequate performance.It's really not bad .

A storm moving in to Denver this morning. It's not supposed to be a ton of snow in town, but it's always fun to see storms move in. It was relatively warm and certainly quite sunny where I was. (Edit - I always think I get every dust spot...dang it)
