He looks mean... The way the rock shape at the back emulates his form is interesting but a little distracting from the main focal point of the eyes. I'm not sure but a hard crop into the head area might provide more impact.

This view is a good improvement. The pose, with the head tucked inside the body, is very natural for a rattler (and most other snakes) and the subtle colors in the scales add a lot.

I think you cropped too much off the right and bottom. The subject is now too far in the lrc.

I like the crop, but I agree with Scott that less might be better.......................Jim
