I can't think to have missed this shot for a year.
This is one of your best shots Bill, and your wife is always the best.

My oh my! Is that a tiny smile I see on that little critter? Yes! I believe it is!

We occasionally have snakes, (even water moccasins) in our pool here in Florida when we “skinny dip”, but Gerie would absolutely FREAK if even a harmless green grass-snake five inches long should make an appearance! She HATES snakes! (You should have heard the constant nagging when my daughter lived here with her five foot ball python! LOL!)

Hi Bill, Wanda,

I've appreciated your galleries for some time, but this is my first post. I've enjoyed seeing many landscapes with which I'm familiar... Utah is such a beautiful place - and a great backdrop for pictures of Wanda.

So, this picture, I just love it.

We've had that exact experience at the hot pots... winter and summer. The snakes love to come and soak in the water... and if you look around you'll usually fine some excellent freshly molted skins. Such fun.

And with the leaves coming in, I'm sure you had a great hike and a great day. We've been to the hot pots once this year, but will have to go again with the leaves color.

Thanks for sharing!

Bill,
Just how do we get an invite to a photo shoot like this?

Tempting, tempting, but where is the apple?

I won't say it. Taking a picture of Wanda nude and holding a snake is just too easy a setup even for me!!! However, now you've just added one more thing in this world for me to be jealous of. I never thought I'd be jealous of a snake before today though.
