Wow impressive. Truly a spectacular shot with impressive focus. Gives the atmosphere of fear to me, and the colour of the snake really stands out nicely on it's backdrop. Nicely done!

A beautiful photo of such a magnificent snake.
Great composition, beautiful lighting and a great depth of field! My favourite part about this would have to be the detail in the scales, kinda makes me want to stroke it .

You're like my husband, haha. I asked him if he liked the photo before I posted it to DA. He said no, I asked what was wrong with it. He said there was a snake in the picture.
