Early part of this past week we had summer temperatures and a lot of critters were coming out of hibernation at Nature Preserve. Then by Thursday cold front came in and we have had winter temperature since then. I caught this common Garter Snake sunning himself and gave me a chance to use my macro mode on my lens. This was shot with Nikon D50 with Tamron 70-300mm lens set at Macro mode with tripod. Shutter at 1/320 aperture at F/8 and ISO at 800...image has been enhanced in editor..
