I didn't know snakes had a sense of humour. :smile: :wink: It looks like it is having a laugh at something. Very nice indeed., though it looks a bit bluish on my screens.

Nice exposure and PoV Jeroen - perhaps subjects eye is a bit too far left in the frame, but I'd be pretty pleased with it :wavey:
