Very cool capture, Terry. From the images I've seen, Buffalo must have a great zoo.

  Great colors and reflections. Reminds me of a trip I did on the Amazon River(unfortunately without a good camera). I bought an anaconda skull necklace at one of the villages and still have it!

  Wow! I'm not exactly a snake lover (who is??:)...but what an incredible capture!! I find myself rather, well, uh - mesmerized by it! Think that has to do mostly with your superb pov, your presentation of this amazing creature, the fine detail, color and beautiful reflection...and it's swimming! What an awesome shot, Terry...have never seen anything like it before...oooo, winner, winner! Fav'd (and I've NEVER fav'd a snake shot either but would do it 10 times over if I could!! :)

  I can't believe I missed this one, Terry! But so glad that BP rewarded it so I get to see it now. Fabulous capture - creepy subject, but a marvelous capture of him - the colors and tones are exquisite and the detail and clarity is spectacular - you can even see his expression, if snakes have expressions, that is. I'm sure we'll see this again!CONGRATULATIONS on another outstanding Finalist, and good luck in the next round!

  I knew it, I knew it, I knew it!!! How could a swimming anaconda, perfectly executed and artistically presented (a challenge in itself):) not have a Finalist Badge attached??????? Now, it needs a much-deserved GOLD! Go Terry!!!
