Dangerous part of nature, excellent capture. V.

Guest 15-Nov-2011 20:51
Cool capture! I am not sure how close I would want to get...

Guest 15-Nov-2011 01:26
good capture...

I saw a number of Alligators around Homestead AFB in Florida.
They are nocturnal, usually sleeping during the day.

The first thing I did was check the exif data below to see if you had a long telephoto lens on-- this guy looks a bit close for comfort. Excellent detail and framing for this and he looks very menacing. V

Mary Terry 14-Nov-2011 20:09
Thank goodness for zoom lenses. ;)

Guest 14-Nov-2011 18:51
He looks sleepy, don't wake him up!!!! Well done Janet!!!

Mairéad 14-Nov-2011 17:22
Great shot of this guy relaxing although I'm quite happy that there's none here for me to snap ( or to snap me!)

Guest 14-Nov-2011 14:26
I I don't want to visit your world! :) V

Stephanie 14-Nov-2011 13:03
What a beautiful capture of this prehistoric beast! V
The only gators we have in PA are those that crazy people release into the sewer system....

Brenda 14-Nov-2011 12:29
Well done though I hope you were at a very safe distance!

Guest 14-Nov-2011 11:49
waiting and watching

Maaike Huizer 14-Nov-2011 08:21
Don't come too near. Well done.

Sheila 14-Nov-2011 07:58
Yes a very, very old form in nature.

Mieke WA Minkjan 14-Nov-2011 07:27
great catch Janet of the alligator which I rather do not like to meet, just like the Australian crocodiles and snakes

borisalex 14-Nov-2011 04:28
He looks well fed!

They are such intriguing critters. Always a thrill for those of use who don't see them daily, to see one when visiting the south! V

Cindi Smith 14-Nov-2011 02:19
LOL at Scott. Yep, can be found all over Louisiana too!

J. Scott Coile 14-Nov-2011 02:02
Slime pusher ;-)

carol j. phipps 14-Nov-2011 00:43
Looks healthy and happy.

Linda Matta 13-Nov-2011 23:35
I won't be visiting either Janet or Lynn anytime soon!! :)
Great shot!

LynnH 13-Nov-2011 23:23
We have a large alligator population here in east Texas too. Every ditch and pond has a gator. They do love the sun in the winter! Great catch.
