The Eyes Have It

Great shot!!! 7!

Best, Tina

Oh My! what a beautiful snake! Nicely focused shot. Loved the color. It is interesting to note that some scales are white! Is it any indication of the age of the snake (as in humans)?

simply excellent... 7!

Indeed! A wonderful image!  The green really jumps out at you.  Is it possible the faded scales are being shed?

I checked entries on the web and discover the pictures show a much less saturated green than you do.  Is it possible that you overemphasized the green in processing?

Jerry, look a little further on the internet, and you will see other examples of gree tree pythons this green, as well as others that are dull green, bright yellow, and combinations of green and yellow.  Keep in mind also that the bright lighting of a zoo exhibit makes for photos with high contrast and strong color saturation.

I hate snakes, I admit it... so part of me didnt want to even look at the photo for any length of time. However, I was drawn in by the colour and composition of the photo. The shadows and the light are fantastic. So, you made me stare at something, that generally speaking, scares the crap out of me. Nice work!!! :)
