    Thank you very much! I told my husband about the kind encouragement you folks have offered and he said “Well I know what it all REALLY means…you’ll be buying more photography equipment.” LOL

      Hi Lisa. I love this shot. You’ve incorporated S-curves, which are inherrently attractive in composition, and the exposure & DoF look spot on – not to mention the unique & interesting subject.
      You’re on a winner!
      I look forward to seeing more of your work.

    Well one thing’s for certain…I’ve seen a LOT of great stuff around here and the added bonus is everyone’s friendly willingness to share tips and theories and insight. It’s an awesome site πŸ˜€

    Thanks…but this photo terrifies me. Not because it’s a snake – he’s harmless. Because it’s my first submission and the talent around here is WAYYYYYY out of my league, LOL.

    • I think you just joined the ‘league’ !
      When I saw this I thought my mother would have dropped dead on the spot. She IS terrified of snakes !
      Congrats on a winner of a first post !

    • LOL ! Yes, even some of the ‘pros’ !

    • LOL ! They can’t all be gems, right ? If ‘talent’ were measured by posts alone, we are all masters !

  • Cold…blooded.

    Found this little guy just chilling out (no pun intended) near the shoreline of the frigid Mississippi yesterday.

    Red-Sided Garter Snake

    • Perfect timing !

    • Hey @rainyshoes, than you for your kind words. Welcome to the community! But this is a very good photograph. Caught a great moment with some interesting composition and some vivid colors. Congrats.

    Hello! My name is Lisa and I live in Ste. Genevieve, Missouri. I’m definitely a novice at all of this stuff, but I’m hooked! At this point, any good shots I get are far more luck than skill so I’m here to listen and learn and hopefully switch that around πŸ™‚
