Gorgeous image Tom! S&L

He looks very menacing for such a mild little snake.
Janet Forjan-Freedman15-Sep-2007 16:15
Great capture! The pose and angle makes it look more intimadating than a garter snake!
Liz Bickel13-Sep-2007 07:04
Nicely shot. Good, low-to-the-ground perspective with sharp detail to his head. The crop also draws the viewer's eye directly to the subject without a lot of clutter.

Terrific shot!
Rich Westfall13-Sep-2007 02:48
Great catch and way too close for me, even though it's a garter snake. It's still a snake.
Richard Vance12-Sep-2007 23:31
He's doing his best to imitate a 'mean snake'! Superb capture, Tom! Vote
Best to you,
