The reflections of the foliage surrounding the gator looked interesting. I played with Topaz Adjust 4 and Viveza to give me a surrelistic look

Myer, I like the dark mysterious look you have created. I think the gator could be a little lower in the frame. I might lighten the eye area just a bit more. Very nicely done.:)

Myer,
THe recrop was the way to go. I will almost always place them lower or higher in the frame depending upon the reflections (how good they are) and which way the gator is facing diagonally.
