    I noticed this medium size croc watching me while I was following some egrets around. Actually a little spooky when you are sitting right at the ponds edge!

    I like your 1/3rds image design, the soft light, the green above, and that sharp eye.

    You seized the moment Mike, with great effect. Love the silky look of the water, such a contrast with how most of us feel about crocs. I like the eye and the reflection and also like the soft green reflections in the water leading to the croc. A very clean image with style.

    Thanks all for the nice comments. It's funny how sometimes the photos you don't go out in search of are often the ones that turn out the best.

    Totally missed this one Mike, my apologies
    Love the reflection and image design as mentioned above. Their eyes have the most beautiful colours and patterns but also a very chilling gaze...
