David, I'd crop this square and forget about that part of the OOF snake
@ the top & left.
Thanks for the comments Ken, interesting. Personally I like the OOF body
and I prefer the original uncropped version (the one I showed was
cropped for a 8x10 print) even more with a bit more of the body showing
up the top (though I dislike the 3:2 ratio for portrait-orientations):
This guy would really pop if the background color was in more contrast
with the snake's color.
Yep, you're right, the set-up wasn't very good and that green is a bit
nasty.

Eastern coast of Australia north of Sydney and up into the tropics and
top end. Unfortunately it's been introduced into Guam where it's
wreaking havoc upon the native birds.
Thanks for the appreciative comments Frank, Markus and Gonz. I was a big
fan of the eyes of this beastie too.
Cheers,
David

Subject: PESO - Tree Snake
Been a while since I posted a photo, and seeing as I took a heap in
the latest holidays, I thought some people might be interested to see
a Brown Tree Snake, Boiga irregularis, from the Top End.
