Nice one Mike. Tack sharp where it needs to be. I kind of like the extra branches and such that show how tangled and deep in the swamp you were. Nice lighting and the pano crop is good for the subject matter. Definitely an amazing place to be.

You gotta love the low perspective and the alligator smile!

I like this shot of the Alligator in the context of it's environment. Despite the objects in front, the focus is clearly where it needed to be. The panoramic crop is perfect for this animal also. Very nice!
