wish those eggs were better focused! great effort-who's nest is this?

The something at the top of the photograph is stealing my attention by drawing my eyes to it. A lower crop to eliminate that would have helped this image. Also, I can't decide if the eggs would be a better candidate for focus.

I keep looking at this image and trying to figure out what I am seeing. I like it but I can't figure it out.

I'm trying but I just can't work out what this is. Although these things usually seem very obvious to the photographer they're often not to the viewer.

This picture is a little confusing. I like the subject, but I think you could have inclueded more of it. However, the eggs really needed to be in focus for it to work. As it is I'm afraid it doesn't, really.

It took me a while to figure out what was going on?

I am not a good photographer, I do not claim to be better than anyone, any criticism is meant to be constructive criticism......

Is this a turtle laying eggs? Wow, great capture. She was not afraid of you because her instincts were stronger in this case.

Me thinks me knows who's entry this is.. That means I probably shouldn't vote on it.. But if I were to, I would give it an eight and say that I wish the main focus was on the eggs.
Hope that helps somehow..

Is this an outtake from the turtle laying eggs on the side of the highway? I'd prefer it if the eggs were also in focus.
