I was very close to this guy before we saw him. He was next to a pond full of alligators so I was not watching. I think I took two minutes to start breathing again. Looks like a rattle snake but has the round eyes versus the slant eyes of the poisonous ones. He was sunning himself and we parted ways without incident.
Contrast and Reflections
I was out exploring an old farm when I saw a few quail running by the fence. They started jumping up onto the fence and running along the rail. I happened to catch a few shots with the background really different.
