I really love this! The composition is superb. As always, you attention to detail is fantastic. The gator really stands out against the background. The exposure is perfect.

Nice work! Thank you so much for sharing.

LOL - Looks like the gator is following your order because if I did not know better I would for certain say that he is smiling. Amazing color of the water as well, and it offers the best of backgrounds for the gator which is standing out from it in the most excellent way.

The photo is also pin sharp and it is such fine textures to be seen in the skin of the animal together with clear and well defined details. The exposure is perfect, and I really like the colors in this photo.

The square format you have cropped the photo into works really well and it is so nice with the diagonal position of the gator within the frame. Another 6 stars shot, but I just gave you the last for the Bobcat.

Funny title but don't want to be near it. What a capture he seems to be posing for the photo. Yes it looks like a smile saying yum you look good for dinner. An extraordinary shot that you got that close to it. I would have gone in the opposite direction to find a butterfly to capture.

    I don't visit places like that even with glass. I really am phobic about it.
