Adder
Well I was going to post an image of a Seal but for forces of Nature can't so here is an image of a Male Adder taken a few weeks back. I like looking for snakes in the Autumn because of the colours, this one is near its hibernating spot so I will be back in the spring to catch up with him again.

Canon EOS 1D MK11, 180mm Lens, Tripod, F8, 1/250, ISO Rating 200.

Very well done. I love the selective sharpness here and the background is amazing.
Love everything about it.

Very nice, great pose! I like the featureless bg which sets off the foreground and snake well.

I like it a lot, but those oof stems on the left just draw my eye too much, the snake itself is fantastic.

Cheers
