Photo taken at Laguna Seca Ranch in South Texas May 1, 2018.
Nikon D850, Nikon 300mm lens, Nikon 1.4 TC, 1/400 sec at f/4.5, ISO 1000, fill flash. Was photographing birds and it got too dark, so I picked up and was driving back to the camp and there was a five foot rattlesnake curled up in the middle of the road. Got out of my truck and tried to "shoo" him out of the road, but he would have nothing to do with it. So I got my camera out and tried to photograph him, but there was not enough light. Had to get the flash out to add some fill, and the snake was still in the road rather perturbed that I wanted him off his road. My truck was too close to the snake, so I had to get in and start it up and move it backwards All the while the snake has staked out his ground and would not move. Took some images, and the snake finally decided he would go elsewhere. Tried to emphasize the eye in a different way. Curious what you might think. Sorry for the long note. |
