That's a fabulous photo - the colors in the snake really stand out from
the green background. Remarkably little noise for ISO 10,000 as well...

If I'm shooting in auto exposure mode it will almost always be TAv.
Unless you're shooting a completely static scene on a good tripod,
shutter speed will affect the way the photo looks. Unless everything
in the scene is beyond the hyperfocal distance and you are below a
diffraction limiting f-stop, aperture will affect the way a photo
looks. In most cases, the noise or dynamic range from various ISOs
will affect the image less, and will have a lower chance of causing a
photo to be unusable, than either of the other two.
Yesterday morning, I took a few minutes out of cleaning up my yard to
photograph a snake I caught. I had never seen one like this, and
wanted to post some photos to facebook which I often refer to as my
"auto-bon", because I can post pictures of wildlife, and they will
automatically be identified for me. After two people marked one of
the photos as a favorite I was moving it into my monthly best-of and
noticed that it was shot at ISO 10,000.
I'll admit, that I had noticed a little noise in the background, but
with my K20, any shot of the sky would show worse noise at ISO 800,
possibly 400. Welcome to the twenty first century where an ISO 10,000
photo might look "a little rough in the shadows".
