Description

A baby rattlesnake that appeared on our deck a few years ago. From what I've been told by experts, baby rattlers are actually more dangerous than adults, because they haven't learned to control the release of their venom & just release it all at once. I haven't been inspired to go out & do a lot of photography lately, so I've been combing through my archives for photos that I originally may have overlooked & may be worth rescuing. This is an example of one whose quality was not all that great (& still isn't), but if there's something worthwhile in a photo (subject, composition, light, etc.), then I enjoy using whatever tools I have at my disposal to try to improve it...
