The Loggerhead Turtle puzzle by photographer Peter Doran features a unique underwater image of this magnificent turtle. In short, it’s a challenging 550-piece beach jigsaw puzzle.
About the Artwork
Loggerheads are named for their large heads and strong jaws. They nest on beaches along the southeastern coast, including North Carolina.
In addition, Peter Doran captured the turtle gliding through the water. As a result, the puzzle feels calm and peaceful.
Because it’s a photograph, the shell and water show many subtle shades. Similarly, that makes the puzzle a rewarding challenge.

Where to Start
Start with the border, then build the turtle, using its shell pattern as a guide, since it stands out right away. Next, work on the flippers and head. After that, piece together any light rays in the water. Finally, fill in the ocean, sorting those pieces by shade.
