A little Sniff [Contest Finalists May 2005]

Auto macro shot of this garndener snake I found sun bathing on my Aunt's driveway. For those who don't know, snakes smell with their tongues, and this one was checking me out while I was closing in with the camera at almost ground level.

Awe, no bravery needed as most of gods creatures won't harm you unless they are provoked! :) Thanks so much Char, Sherri and Carla! #1347671Deborah Sandidge May 13, 2005
Great capture, Lori, although I'll keep my distance, LOL! #1348742Lori Ditlefsen May 13, 2005
hehe, thanks Deborah! #1349430Lori Ditlefsen June 20, 2005
Thank you so much for your comments and suggestion. It is sometimes hard to know what catagory to put things into. Since I used macro, I thought macro was the right one. But you are right that animals would have been a great place for it too! I forget that I can reenter into different catagories but I'll keep that in mind in the future! #1494826Wong Chek Poh June 21, 2005
