Just trying out different point of view.
Come to think of it, maybe I can use one of them for this week's challenge.
Nikon D70 + Sigma 70-300mm f/4-5.6 APO Macro Super II
The first one is taken through glass with 5 sec exposure @f/22 ISO 1600.

    Wow bochie that snake shot is super-cool! Love how the eye is looking you (me?)... I like the composition of the third, as well. But that second shot, I've never seen a headless tortoise like that one before...Amazing! lol3.gif

    Thanks AJ,
    Actually processing the snake gave me the creeps too, scared the heck out of my wife though. :D
    The giant tortoise was inside the shed. I can't see his head/front either.

    Thanks Ben,
    I learn fast with the butt shot, knowing that it is a crowd pleaser rolleyes1.gif
    I would have like a full frontal butt but I don't think they would allow me in their enclosure.

    How many photographers does it take to change a light bulb? 50. One to change the bulb, and forty-nine to say, "I could have done that better!"

    I was kinda lucky to stumble upon the big guy. I've never seen them sleep like that before.
