Wonderful capture Rob...great image! The lovely coloured leaf litter makes a beautiful backdrop for your shot of the Garter Snake, too! Very well seen and taken... #162471

Carolyn,
Thank you for your comments. I was actually out walking around looking for fall foliage when I came across this Garter snake sunning himself next to a weedline.It was unusual that he sat still for me for so long.They usually crawl away when they see you.It was sort of a surprise bonus.Thanks again,Rob #739124
