It's not the best of shots but I thought it was interesting for the camo aspect. I was still able to see the snake approaching but it is still a little spooky. :D

Nice shot. You might want to photoshop out some of the other details, like the leaf, branches, etc., and make the entire scene just the snake and the algae.


Thank you. bw!
