Charming Snake
Uploaded: October 10, 2012

Saw this beautiful snake at a pet store. I nicknamed it Smiley because of its friendly face. Since its pattern of colors includes autumn shades of rust, brown, and yellow, I'm putting it in the Monthly Theme category.

Wow! Mary, my first reaction was to favorite this right away. I'm blown away with the colors and details and you've composed it so well to show the length of the body. It's charming indeed but not deadly I hope. #10376553Sign up for an interactive online photography course to get critiques on your photos.
