I almost forgot to post. I was thrown off because Monday was a holiday here in the U.S. - President's Day. I hope my fellow Americans has a nice, safe holiday and that all of you far and wide are ready to get your eyes wet! I am! Thanks again for participating. I still apologize that I'm not able to visit everyone but I sure tried last week. :-)
This is a shot from the botanical garden at the University of Califronia at Riverside (U.C. Riverside). I'm posting two shots this week because I wanted to also show the turtle that was at the end of the log in the picture above.

Beautiful with all that shade in your first pic and what a sychronicity -I also posted a watery landscape:)
I think the turtle is the perfect post. He looks so very happy there on this special spot.The composition of both shots is excellent, and the mixture of light and shadow in the first picture is awesome. A beautiful post.
Great shots and such a cute turtle! I am a new follower and joining your party for the first time.
Just love your turtle. ;)
Love your turtle sunning himself :-)
Very cute photos.
Éa primeira vez que participo deste tema. Tenhos umas fotos lindas de rios e piscinas, e quero compartilhá-las. Gostei muito de suas fotos! A tartaruga sonolente parece querer olhar para mim. O versículo do seu perfil é ótimo!
What an adorable turtle...out enjoying some sunshine!
I also love the turtle! looks so warm in comparison to here :)

That stripy turtle gives a whole new meaning to tree hugging.
Great shots. Love the turtle.
The turtle is very sweet.
Love that turtle!
Cool! Thanks for touring us around U.C. botanical gardens! Can't wait to see more!
I'm enjoying the different kind of water shot you posted this week, and that great turtle! I happen to have animals in my water shot myself today: http://www.lovethatimage.com/blog/2011/02/blue-heron-and-harbor-seals/
Don't worry about visiting. You just can't do everything, can you?
Cool shot! Mine is up.
Hi! Thanks for hosting. This is my first time joining in!
I'd enjoy a walk in this botanical garden and would be pleased to meet this cute turtle. Lovely Watery Wednesday shots.
my first watery post this year :-)
Your photos are great (as always) and I love the turtles. We can only have them as housepets and I had a very small one when I was a kid (loooong time ago that is ;-) )

Wow. That turtle is very huge.
The turtle is quite a remarkable, dramatically patterned character! At first, I even thought a pair of glasses were sitting on its shell! Great photos!
very nice! I like it....:)
mine is up as well! http://www.gregdemcydias.com/2011/02/unpredictable-weather.html

Wonderful. I'm glad you showed both the photo of the environment and the close-up of the turtle.
He is so cute!
Nice captures. I like how the turtle is gripping that log as he moves into fun sunbathing mode.
I just LOVE this picture of the turtle!! Now I want to go visit these gardens in Riverside....putting on my list for when I get back home to Vegas!
Have a fabulous Watery Wednesday!

It looks like the turtle is trying to survive?
How beautiful ... the turtle shot is awesome. Thanks for having WW for us!

Love the turtle;o)

Have a fabulous week****
The turtle has this look about him: "Hey! Why are you interrupting my nap?"
A SEEKER OF WATER
A seeker of water, they say,
Is likely to savor the day,
If she can find dew,
A few raindrops too—
Or even some vast ocean spray!
