[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Weasel (Mustela Nivalis)
Donnola

Ringe Grassnake (Natrix natrix)
Natrice dal collare

Fotografati presso una discarica abusiva. La biscia era appostata per cacciare, e la donnola avendola vista è andata a rompergli le scatole. Se non fosse stato perchè un passante ha disturbato la scena forse avrei visto uno scontro fisico. Forse.

Hi Angelo!

You present us a captivating picture of a dramatic moment! Was this taken in free nature? It's marvellous, and you have taken a maximum advantage of the situation. The colours and the lighting are as superb as the composition. Congratulations!

Kind regards

Markus

Foto da concorso... se fosse appena visibile il profile del mustelide la foto vincerebbe ovunque!!

Potremmo clonare la mia donnola vicino al tuo serpente :-)

Complimentissimi!!!

Andrea

la foto merita come dice elefantino dei premi...è qualcosa di unico quel momento

Concordo pienamente i commenti di Elefantino e Protreck! Complimentoni per la foto PERFETTA! Scommetto che eri fermo in appostamento (cioè non in caccia vagante).

Ciao e grazie, Emanuele

Fantastic scene.
Easy kill for the weasel. They mostly live on mammals and birds. I wonder if they would eat a snake. They are very playful and spiteful. I would easily imagine them fighting a snake just for the fun of it.
Brilliant scene. Brilliant POV. Brilliant colors.
This pic is really a must-see.
