Reptilius Plasticus
Uploaded: September 06, 2004
I admit I was terrified when I came upon these rare and elusive creatures, but after borrowing a Zanax from a far less adverturesome onlooker, I overcame my fear and got close enough to these viscous reptiles to capture this shot. I'm glad I was able to bring this once in a lifetime shot to the betterphoto community and I hope my bravery will be appreciated! Some slight post processing with Photo Impact, but essentially as the camera saw it! Please critique.

Thanks for your comment, Murry! Don't worry, I was using my 4 year old daughter as a human shield to protect me incase these feroucious creatures mounted a mass attack! ;-) #758377Dan Holm September 06, 2004
