Not just past a image thougth a filter and post it.But take the image a add to it// cut// bend the colors and make real art.Use layes and lays of images. each showing what is under it. blowing your mind as you make it hopeing others will look at it and say that far out man BIOborn on Sept 23, 1951 in lake charles,la. just haveing fun dont like doing the same things over and over. It like eating you eat diff things all the time.

i see five gators in this picture ....thats five too many for me to be that close... be careful... Way to go on the art show!

You go boy! Thats a fair sized gator. There is a place on Bourbon St. that serves gator bites as a appiterizer (very yummy :)~ The hole looks more like a shadow of a bump sticking out of its side. Good one ;-)

Wow! It's a great shot of those babies, really, because you can see the scale of them and what they do, too. That hole just doesn't look right. Like maybe a scar because the skin around is grown in an odd way. Good you didn't check her out more-- if she was gone, it's a decent chance she actually was alive and that's not a fatal hole but a tired mom from taking care of all those babies. She also looks a little bit wet, and not entirely dried after crawling out of the water. But noooo! You do not neeeeeed to know! Hehe.

I love this foto, and the babies are almost invisible; I hope their mama's going to be around for them. How exciting to be able to get this close to such a huge creature!! Congrats on the art show as well!!

You are brave my friend... excellent capture Jock!

It is really something the way that the young blend in with the surroundings so well.Great picture.

I zoomed in on the picture Jocko and it looks like there is something above the hole creating a shadow, as though some of the scaling has lifted, it could be something still in there. I saw the five babies right away but didn't spot the one above her head until I zoomed in. Excellent wildlife capture, certainly one to be proud of. Does Lake Martin have any wildlife wardens? If it does they might like to know where this was taken so they could look out for her maybe. Congratulations on the 3rd place ribon as well, don't know what sort of art you were showing, maybe you could show us on here? If you showed this image it may do better than 3rd. Excellent work all round. Bravo!!!!!

Truly amazing ! Excellent shot Jocko ! Ana

Nice one! The babies look great. The hole may not be too deep... the shadows are very strong here on there on the rest of its body and it's head looks slightly erect. Great shot! Congratulations on the 3rd place too!

A fantastic capture Jocko, I must say, until I read I did not see the babies at first. Oh wow you are so lucky to have caught this on camera in the wild. Even from a distance I would be nervous. I see the hole, thogh still looks alive to me!! But 7 babies!

I have to revise my comment somewhat. After speaking with Flannelman, who is right 99.9% of the time, I blew this shot up to 200% and saw the hole was very odd. I can’t see it as a shadow because of the way it cuts through the scales and in one spot a scale is slightly located behind the other. I still think it is a hole of some sort but not sure of how serious it might be or if it is truly an old one that has recessed to create a shadow within the depression. However, it is still underweight from not eating and I now figure that is because as Jocko says, it is coming out of hibernation. This is a very fine shot. The information in it is expansive and the babies, yearlings or a bit better, seem healthy. BTW, the record alligator was taken on Marsh Island, Louisiana and was 19 feet 2 inches. And, Louisiana now has a wild alligator season that harvests 28,000-35,000 alligators annually during the month of September. This season lasts approximately 30 days. I just love gators!
