Fantastic colours of green and great sharpness. I would have cropped off a little more from the bottom and left to make this even mnore dramatic a portrait.

Super close-up et sujet très intéressant.
Je compte aller me louer une excellente lentille pour une fin de semaine et tenter ma chance dans un de tes 2 endroits de prédilection qui sont le biodome et/ou l'ecomuseum.

Hola Luc:
I admire in your picture many things:
The beauty of the monochrome green
Fantastic illumination
Somehow for my eyes this is as a dragon
The drop of water is as a third eye

Congratulations, you have a composition super attractive and rich in green.
Saludos Cordiales. *Ninfa Urania*

Green-eyed beauty! And she's got a dribbly nose too. Great shot Luc, what an incredible capture, the green is amazing, and so is the sharpness and composition. I love it, and so does Molly...

Superb shot Luc!
The colour of this snake is amazing. The picture has nice details and framing though I thing I like the WS photo a bit more. Anyway, both are great.
VERY WELL DONE!

The light and clearness in this shot is excellent, Luc. The subject is impressing and the POV makes a nice composition. Greens look a bit too saturated in my monitor, but so slight I am sure is due to harware settings. Really impressing.
Thanks very much for sharing.

Hello Luc!

A resounding WoW for this composition, for 3 main reasons:

1.Green is my favorite color.

2.The color of my eyes are green..."it is an aspect of my (physical) nature which I like ;-)"

3.I am (just a little) green with envy, at the amazing shot you have shared with us here!

He is beautiful, every scale and nuance so well detailed; those eyes, so cleverly shrouding their intent.

That single droplet, suspended at the end of his face is so mesmerizing and teases us with its presence.

Yup, I could gaze at this all day, and not tire of all that I see, and all that I perceive...

That, is the mark of a great photo! IMHO.

Thank you once again, friend Luc!

Well composed and nice colors Luc. POV is great too! Maybe it is a little underexposed on some parts, but that's a minor nit. The tight crops works perfectly. Well done & TFS!

Hi Luc,
A very impressive composition with this Tree Boa. The many shades and hues of green are very beautiful. Detail and texture are superb. Nice DOF to give a OOF backround. The eyes are very hypnotic! Looks great!

Wow! great shot, Luc. The green of the boa's eyes in comparison to the direction and flow of it's scales particularly stands out. It's hard to believe that this was shot through glass.
