Turtle Soup

I had a lot of fun processing this shot. I used a GoPro to film while we were snorkeling off the Playa del Carmen coast in Mexico. This turtle almost brushed my chest as it approached me from behind. It gave me quite a start. The GoPro shoots quite blue underwater so in the correction process I had to tone down the blue on its carapace but that also made the water look gray, so I used a filter mask and then got a bit creative in bringing the blue back. What the heck, I might as well have some fun, this is what happened. No soup here, just the fun of making it look like it was swimming in some.
