This is the same snake I played peekaboo with... he wasn't too happy with me. When he started to come towards me, I backed off and left him alone.

I like how the snake is now the obvious main subject - it looks like the snake was moving and you were panning along with that movement - those are tricky shots.

Really nice improvement over the last one Holly! :toast:

Nice snake, good moment. The snake does not appear entirely sharp which surprises me given the shutter speed which should be ample. Is this maybe a big crop?
Grtz, Ingrid. :confused:
