[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Almost forgot to post this guy! We took a little Everglades detour on our way back home. Didn't get to do much due to time constraints but we did do some croc spotting. This guy was pretty happy to see us and a little miffed that he didn't get to chomp on anything. lol...

No, thank you...

Hi Luis,
Nice sharp focus on the head with good, lifelike colours. The out of focus plantlife in the foreground adds to the sense that you are hiding, and the croc is just waiting for you to come out.
Great capture and tfs,
Jako

Very nice image. Good choice of DOF. The only minor thing is that something greeen that is completely out of focus on the foreground. But I can imagine that it is not easy to get rid of it. Well done!
