The Joshua Tree Rattlesnake

California, USA

I have shot this rattlesnake accidentally.
I did'nt see the snake at this very moment, however it was pretty close to me (24mm lens).

10 minutes later we had an encounter.
I had a lot of luck and I will remember this very close meeting (less than 2 meters) and loud sound of rattle for the rest of my life :)))

Nikon D7000 ,Nikkor AF-S 14-24mm f/2.8G ED
1/640s f/8.0 at 24.0mm iso125 full exif

I am sure you will remember this encounter, never know what extra attractions will appear after you begin to process the images .
I have surprises appear in images but not like this one.
Nice image Tomasz and glad you did not have a serious run in with the rattlesnak.
