Three Amigos*

Every time I visit the zoo I take at least one shot of the Green Tree Pythons. I love these animals ... at least as long as they are in their cage. I wonder whether they are really without danger for man; they reach a length of up to 6 feet and are not much thicker than 1 1/2 inches. They are not poisonous and feed on little animals but I would not like one to coil itself round my neck...

Indeed a captivating piece. The composition is very satisfying to me. -Michael

Hi Gerald!
I would just have to repeat what Mr. Bisuit said, therefore I just say: Great!

Thanks for your comments.
Out-of-the-camera image quality was not so good. I wonder how some people manage to get perfect results directly out of the 10D; I rarely do. My standard workflow in CS2 was used for some improvements, nothing special: cropping, Neat Image, levels, curves, selective sharpening, resizing and, finally, selective sharpening with a lower radius.

Wow, both freaky and completely engaging. Dunno if it rolled off the camera that way, but the contrast is *perfect*. This has tremendous depth, almost looking 3D on my monitor. Nicely done. And (... um...) green. --Mr. Biscuit
