Around 165 days ago this little guy was an egg!
I think it's been worth the wait... ( be sure to "resize" 2 X ).
Not quite 2" SCL -
The minute details of these hatchlings is beyond amazing to me... and to have a camera that I can share that with others.
This was the very first time he has ever seen light so I didn't want to expose him to too much 'flash' -
[ these plastron pics were 'quickies' ]
We can only imagine what he will grow up to be. And his sibling is out of the egg on his own and is absorbing his yolk-sac as well.. looks like past the danger point.
