You might spot me at Kirra Beach, the South-Eastern end of the Gold Coast, Australia, if you like beach walking like myself... but there is more ! My son Jeff (*jif3d*, here at Rendo, it helps to advertise, ooops)... he took this pic of me in 2000, then manipulated it in photo-shop and it's still one of my favourites. Just very briefly about my past... *born in East Prussia; *grew up in Berlin, West Germany; *migrated to "OZ" in 1960, (not the Wizard of Oz) but...AUSTRALIA ! I guess I was more into '2D' since early childhood, and thinking that my son Jeff may have inherited some of my artistic skills, because he translated them into '3D'. I am hooked on photography, since I discovered cameras... that's it in a nutshell. BTW - one of my fav.quotes.... ** I cannot give you the formula for success, but I can give you the formula for failure - which is trying to please everybody !** that's a wrap... Cheers Brigitte.

It actually took me a minute to figure out exactly what was happening (well, in the thumbnail -- the big version is very clear). Yup. This is gross. Natural, but gross. Still, you should be very proud of yourself for capturing such a raw moment on film. Maybe there are some wildlife Websites that might enjoy running this image? I'll bet a quick google search would find someone who could make good use of it.

A super capture and I hope the snake ate the toad as I hear they are not at all nice. Love your humour and will look forward to seeing more captures.

Great catch! I also hope the snake got dinner out of the deal. I do know about the cane toads. Well done!
