177 Looking Down


As we contiued walking in the forest preserve I was looking around for things to photograph but I wasn't expecting this!! Looking down this guy decided to slither across the path in front of us. How I got this shot is beyond me as I am not fond of snakes but one must be brave when it comes to getting a photograph!!

This needs to be enlarged to see the grandious size of this snake!!
