Fantastic mood & detail here!
What r you shooting with author?

With my little sons: D700 and 105 VR Micro

this is a lovely shot, nicely framed, the reflection is superb. the only thing that lets it down in my opinion, is the focus.........it is a little oof...

Ade, you're right when I uploaded the hires I've chossen the first shot that was oof... now I've uploaded the right one. Thanks!

Is this picture in a zoo or reptile cage?

stunning

Very Nice Capture.

That's much better Author!

impressive!

one question author..........where was this shot, it seems very still!!

Absolutely amazing

This DOES look creepy!

Great shot

Damn, this is definitely something to compete with. Very, very nice! GL!

It looks like an indoor shot and not a forest or woods make. But dont let a simple thing like that stop the WOW factor.

@Ade & @Mek: as well as being good photographers, you are also good investigators!

Who cares where it was taken. This shot is superb! Probably my favorite. You know what they say, if it quacks like a duck...

it was just a question...........out of curiosity!

So glad to see this placed so high. Congrats!

Congrats for your second place!

Thanks for the comments, to answer your question kitkat671, used nikon 200 shutter 1/250, aperture f8.0 , focal 24mm,iso 100.....taken in am hours, and adjusted color a little in iphoto.

wow! gotta learn how to do that! :P thanks!

looks like a little too much color correction in photoshop/ great shot!!! but you can tell there was color correction. The plants to me give that away.

beaautiful
