Nope, no rattlers in the Edmonton area, but this was an unusual find along a trail in the Whitemud Ravine. Luckily for Brooke & I, the owner had long left their old coat behind in the reeds.
So this shot is a true manipulation, as the subject is posed in the nearby grass (and a touch of HDR to bring the grass out), to give the look that the snake is about to strike.

Nature in all her glory is my uplift on life and so is my love of photography.

That's one epidermis I've have no desire to "manipulate", John. Even without any innards, it still scares me. But it is a lovely shot though!

Now that's something you don't see every day. Can you make me a snakeskin camera gadget bag? Excellent work on the HDR.

Truly an unusual find, John! I too, like the open jaws and comp! Personally, I think the grass is too green, however, I do like the enhanced detail of the skin that the HDR treatment provided. Thanks for sharing :)
