Nice close up, and yes I think it is a rat snake =)

fantastic, bravo

as a painting, wonderful bravo

VERY nice shot

a really cool shot... but I don't see the risk

definitely risky and scary

Well...to tell the truth, I'm a bit of an outdoorsman, and the indication that a snake is poisonous with just a look is the eyes...round pupils like a dog or human is non-poisonous and pupils similar to a cat (narrow and tall) indicates a poisonous snake...just FYI. Altough, many people choose (rather wisely) not to get close enough to do an eyeball inspection...LOL

Yep...a rat snake...non-poisonous, but...they will strike and bite your face...LOL nice shot author, most people fear snakes very much, so to get this close, I'd call that an on-topic shot. Well done.

what a wonderful shot, well done

Great shot!

Ehhh, what is this??

great shot

Oh I want one, I miss birds chirping, where I live there is not enough of them. Can you transmit it to my speakers, lol. Very cool, never knew something like that existed =)

Nicely done author...very good indeed.

Lovely

I hope the M&M's aren't as old as the machine., Great find.

Cool how the flowers and the lights intermingle.

I'd love to have one, nice photo

Congrats!

Sorry, but if this is a piggy bank, it may not be on theme. "Coin slots" are for "slotting" in coins to operate some kind of machinery. The contest requirement says as much. I can be wrong of course.

Lovely crazed detailing on the (enamel?) surface. Would have liked more light on the right side.

I hope it was taking of, not coming in to land.

Creepy

definitely strange, good photo too.

Nice Congrats!

So many band I've never heard of, we should have been made to put a link to one of their songs instead of just wiki.

A bit too dark on the right, you can barely make out the screen above the microphone. A bit more contrast would have helped this.
