I would have been very happy for the full 400mm. For that matter, the IS, because my hands would have been shaking ;)

What a perfect time to have a telephoto lens.

Good work. Hope you didn't pause to get more shots...
Pepe Zyman20-Mar-2005 04:04
Nice Catch
Susanne20-Mar-2005 03:55
Yikes. This image captured instantly my intention when I looked at your photos from the passing days that I missed. Great shot and a bit close dont you think? Though I love how you captured this sneaky snake.

Still to close for my liking..

I spend hours trying to think what's good about the UK.... thanks for the suggestion Herb.

Ewwww!
Bryan Murahashi18-Mar-2005 20:09
Mean looking snake. Was 400mm long enough;-)?
Guest 18-Mar-2005 11:13
I'm glad we don't have these in the uk!
Yvonne18-Mar-2005 11:00
I'll be having nightmares after viewing your rattler!
Guest 18-Mar-2005 07:10

Karen Leaf18-Mar-2005 04:08
I see that you're at 400mm for this one Herb. Excellent choice.
Elaine (etfitz)18-Mar-2005 03:16
Scary!
Katie Chew18-Mar-2005 01:53
Nice shot, but way to close for me!
don nieman17-Mar-2005 23:48
That's closer than I would like to be.
Stu17-Mar-2005 23:22
Wow... I'd be keeping my distance too!
Dan Chusid17-Mar-2005 22:38
Due to the massive rains this year, there will be a lot more of these sightings. Watch your ass!!!

Reptiles are not on my fave list, Herb. Your braver than me.
Lee Rudd17-Mar-2005 21:56

Jeffery Stahlman17-Mar-2005 21:46

jypsee17-Mar-2005 21:38
