Great rattlesnake! I got a photo last year on a hike in Tennessee- the snake was about 1 foot off the trail and we wouldn't have seen it but for hearing the rattles. It didn't escape without a photo! #1504888

Hi Carol, thank you,
I just about stepped on one last year, if it did not rattle, then it would have got me #10475729

I err on the side of caution with all snakes Stan! Wonderful light and detail in this fine wildlife capture! #10476173

Wm thank you, wow, I'm actually scared of them when I go to Dinasaur Park to photograph #10476627

Wonderful shot Stan but way too close for my comfort zone. We have to treat their bites out here usually ranchers. We keep the anti-venom handy in the ER. #10479742

Hi Emile, thank you, no I used a zoom lens on this boy, he was quite large and I was not taking any chances #10479883
