I had a stare down with a snake at the zoo. Wish his tongue had been out for the photo, but loved that I could get in there so close to his face safely. This reminded me somewhat of Harry Potter and the talking snake at the zoo.
So sorry for those of you with snake phobias. Look away. That stare, it's almost hypnotic, huh?
My title came to me while shooting and I had to go with this photo...for the title. Such a good title. It's that way for me sometimes. The title is important to me. I can't use a photo sometimes, til I have one. Untitled is never an option. Never.
While walking around the zoo, the group of us girls...all girl scouts and their moms, passed a male peacock. One of the mom's joked that he said, "How YOU doing?" to the group of us pretty ladies. Got me thinking about flirty zoo animals:).
What a sight to see so early in the morning......scared me half to death.....LOL! Just kidding. Love the way you caught him head on and the expression is priceless.
OMG! He is coming right out the screen at me, sending shivers down my spine! Great photo, even if I don't really like it (if you know what I mean!) Fav.
Wow - what a fabulous pov. I have no problem with snakes (as long as they are not poisonous and no sudden moves are involved) but I was leaning in close to the laptop when this one popped up on the screen, so there was a yikes moment. And I know what you mean about titles - they are a big part of the creativity process for me!
