This is considered to be one of our most venemous snakes in Costa Rica hence it is a good idea to shoot it in a controlled situation like in this case where we shoot from a distance.

Great image with nice sharpness around the head and tail, while showing how well they blend in to the surroundings, but a scary one as well!!!

Wonderful shot! Love the head and tail being close together and the great tongue action.
