Having worked with Corn Snakes in the pet trade for years, it was surreal to find this wild hatchling in Key Largo, Florida.

What a beauty Kyle. I like your composition and DOF with that OOF curved body. One thing would have pulled this over the top and that is a tongue out

I like the composition you choose Kyle. The little guy looks rather cute. I do think the image would be a little stronger without the dried leaf in the upper left (beyond your control of course).
