The green beauty amongst greenery

[Prajwal J Ullal]

ID: Green Vine snake

A beautiful sight of a tiny Vine snake peeping thru a small plant, probably, on a look out for some tiny catch. The beauty was cooperative enough to get some beautiful frames, though this one was taken from a zoom lens.

Agree, it stands out nicely against the green background. Was a slight lower angle possible here? Good details. Thanks for sharing.

Was difficult as, though it was cooperative, it kpet slowly moving around...so I was ready for that low angle frame, but it already moved even lower...

The scales near the eyes appear to be in focus. A higher depth of field was required to get the entire head in focus. Overall the image seems to be soft. Were you shooting through vegetation?
