This is one kind of surprise that you never forget if it's really close when the buzzer goes off. Having a resident black snake or gopher snakes will keep these critters away from your yard.
That's a nice tight shot of the snake. I think that even if the rattler was in focus, it would not be sharp due to motion blur. |

| OK, so the first thing I checked was what lens you used to shoot this guy. Great detail and a very good shot of a rattlesnake - looks to be fairly mature as he's got a pretty thick body. Next thing - what did you do after you shot him?? And congrats on the new top row entry!! |

| Brilliant shot & congrats on your new 4th best shot; it's a good (if a bit scary) one to have on your profile page. As for those who want the rattle in focus, not me, I want to keep my eye on that mouth! That's the business end, anyway, other end is all bluster! |

| This looks very close and dangerous! I think this would be better if the rattle was in focus. |

| Nice capture of this snake. The square crop works well with your composition. I love how you got the tongue out and everything. I just wish the DOF was a bit deeper to get the rattles in focus also. |
