    Well actually a short hedgerow. Waited what seemed like forever for him to stick his tongue out but he never did.

    MKIII, EF500 @1.4x, 1/1250, f/7.1, ISO 800, background was a bright red suv 100 feet behind him.

    Really like the color in the background and the detail in the snake. Maybe just a little more room on the bottom.

    Al, Mike says it's a bright red SUV, but adds an unusual bg all the same. Lovely eye on this and good DOF. I'm not much of a snake person, but I think this is a very nice image.

    The read SUV really makes this one pop. Nice detail as well.

    Beautiful pose and image, Mike. The eye on that critter is just beautiful with its red detail. Hey we are starting "snake week!"
