[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
This was in taken in Phuket snake park. The park ranger allowed me to get a closer look by opening the doors of the cage. I POKED my head in to get this pic, took it, and later realised that it was almost about ready to strike me.

HI Kiran,
nice to see another A100 user.
it's a bit soft and the DOF is bit shallow, but good compostion and POV. The colours is very nice too.
Well done.

Hello Kiran,
Pleasant composition, I like the way the snake comes out of the upper right corner!
Great details and fine natural comlours...
Greetings,

Hi, Kiran.
Interesting shot. Good pose, good exposure, but a little bit soft.

Hi Kiran.
I like this perfectly composed, cropped and coloured picture. Use of flash and exposure parameters are perfect. Concerning sharpness of the snake, I want to say that I prefer more sharp images. I am sure you can do it. However, thi is matter of taste. I advise you to write exact type of your equipment. There are many 75-300 mm lenses. They are too different. My best wishes and TFS.
Alexei.
