    Yes I used torch light on the snake for lighting.. and flash light also.. simple flash which given in digital camera..
    without torch light the image come very dull in bad light. I am sharing original image without editing.

    Thanks. I am trying to understand why you had the torch well off to your left as this caused the shadows in the Pane 1 image. I think....

    Morris, If you trying to say that why I apply torch light on snake head and caused shadow in hood... I did not intentionally apply the torch light in head of snake.. I know, due to it reduced the details, but this snake do not seat quietly and steady.. the image which I want to take actually, I don't get it.. I got different from it and torch light automatically apply to other parts of body, take a example of this image. And of course I am little scared also, its a venomous snake.
    Hope you understand.

    Hi.. Morris, I think your Doubt is not clear.. I explain you.. When We Found this snake It was late evening.. so We cant get enough light for photographs and I already mentioned that I have Digital camera and its flash is not Actually good. So I Choose torch light more lighting.. The reason behind the Harsh shadow is More light.. Torch light + flash light so, it makes the harsh shadow.. if I off my Camera flash than image comes Blur. And I say earlier I do not want the Light on face of snake.. In 1st Image I reduce the shadow and Highlight so that you see more shadow of light compare to unedited Image 2.
    I Hope I explain Properly.. Any more doubt Pl.let me know.

    Hi Joshi. Interesting lighting and good sharpness. I think this image would look great with a vertical (rather than horizontal) crop.
