"There's a snake in my boots" - Woody, Toy Story

Not really, but he was trying to get into my garage! He was much smaller in real life about 12-18 inches long, maybe.

Oh, great POV and DOF! And creepy!

[Edie]

Yikes! Great pov.

[cheryl]

How low did you go?? I would have ran the other way.. wait.. maybe in the past.. but like you .. would have gotten a shot in. great POV

[Tara]

@cheribug I was dressed kind of nice, so I was down on my knees bent over :) - that way I could get away quickly if necessary! Thanks Cheryl!

[Tara]

@edie Thanks Edie!

[Tara]

@darylo Isn't it though? Funny, now that I'm behind a camera, I feel a little bit braver. Thanks for your kind comments!

[Colleen]

You are very brave!

[Michael Elliott]

wow cool - most people would run!

[French Speaking Redneck]

I am impressed too, great shot!

[Sue Wilde]

SCREAM!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[👑 AnaZad]

The picture depicts the snake much larger.

[Cindy]

Yikes! Great shot!

[katy]

Very impressed that you didn't run! Amazing shot, Tara. That low POV is awesome!

[Tara]

@anazad511 I know, but he was really little - so I wasn't that brave :)

[Tara]

@grammyn Thanks Katy! He was really little, so it wasn't that scary and I could tell that he wasn't poisonous so that gave me more courage.

[Tara]

@csinger72 Thanks Cindy!

[Tara]

@swilde Ha Ha - he was really little. Just looks big in the shot.

[MaryBeth Dailey]

I LOVE Toy Story! Even if he was poisonous, he'd not have enough to hurt you, I'd think! Great shot!

[debi]

this is creepy......but I love it ;)

[Lisa Pouncy]

Very brave lady to get that close. It would have freaked me out I think! xx

[Tara]

@psychographer Don't worry, it's cropped, a lot!

[Susan]

I think he was about 12-18 inches too long! LOL! Great shot!

[Abhijit]

don't like snakes, especially when they wre looking at me, ready to pounce
awesome shot btw

[John]

Great shot, I'd have been hiding

[Andrew S]

Eeep, not a fan of snakes. Cropped or not, still a brave shot... I would have been outta there!

[Jerri]

that freaks me OUT! i can't believe you had your wits about you to think: camera!

[Pyrrhula]

Great find and a great capture, Very brave of you

[Jeff Walker]

@espyetta the little ones tend to inject all their poison, so can be more dangerous than full grown adults.

[Jeff Walker]

this looks like a rat snake. they're pretty cool... I used to have a red one as a pet. they come in a few different colors. This could also be a garter snake since not all garter snakes have stripes (based on how small you say it was). Snakes are way more scared of people that people can ever be of snakes. Unlike spiders... they fear NOTHING

[Tara]

@jsw0109 He was a little guy, just used perspective to make him appear bigger :) Not sure I'd go so far as having one as a pet, but fun to photograph.
