Very nicely done. I tried this at the zoo, but the dirty speckled glass did not make for a good photo. This is good!

my first thought was it is very young. excellent capture, but I will leave the crocs to others and pet snakes.in the comics the other day two coworkers were talking about another coworker not coming to work. in another window it shows a python with the shape of a man inside of it .the caption of the man says I should of bought gold fish instead!!!
