FREE RIDE

A CHEEKY snail fancies his chances at getting a free ride on a sunny afternoon. After managing the climb up, the turtle appears blissfully unaware of his passenger as he cools off on the hot day and relaxed on the back of the shell of its turtle-pal. The amusing photograph, taken by photographer Lessy Sebastian, 48, was captured at the side of the pond at his home in Jakarta, Indonesia.
