4/22 - Eve's Buddy

Home, Backyard

This, my friend's, is a lesson in why you don't shoot tight macro without a tripod. I twitched just as
I pulled the trigger on this and the focus plane shifted to just a touch behind his head instead on
the eye the way I wanted. This was the last of 4 shots, each a bit better than the last but the dogs
decided to check out what I was doing about this time so I had to abandon my shoot to keep them from
finding my model. The snake, for his part, was a most willing subject and never moved.

good capture.

How can you get that close to a snake?!?!?! Very brave of you! I would have taken a hoe to it instead of a camera.lol btw, I would not call the serpent Eve's buddy. She was deceived by him after all, and buddies do not practice to deceive. ;)

I like the dof on this, but Yeah, macro can be tuff sometimes.
