Very nice and detailed submission for the contest. Definitely seeing green when I look at this photo. I am curious as to where this was taken. Good work.

Great photograph with and exceptional detail and focus on only this snake head. I am glad that he is only a photograph. The light shining on him is bringing the picture to life even more. Great picture!

Great photo!
Creepy...cant say I like the subject but it's a really cool shot. The green color is fabulous and the details of the scales are so clear. Dark background makes the snake look even more dramatic!

Very interesting! He fills the frame well- beautiful composition. Vivid color, the dark background and shades make is green skin/scales pop!

OMG! This looks like a brother of Corona virus! Hope there is no second wave coming! :):) Very eye catching presentation. Tight framing and good light and sharpness. Thanks for sharing!

Comment from nikman


Quite an intriguing entry into the competition posted here! It certainly has a lot of green in it!! Reminds me somehow of a reptile. A one-eyed snake? Exposure and sharpness are good. Well done and good luck!

    Thanks a lot Nik. Yes this snake was interesting as it seemed to have part of the side of his head caved in. Kind of strange ~ Steve
