Bonsoir Loot
Magnifique composition, j'adore ! C'est une prise de vue superbe ,les couleurs et les détails sont très bien.Est-ce qu'il essayait de se camouffler avec ce feuillage sur lui.
Merci et au revoir....JP

Very cool crocodile shot. I'm glad I don't have any of those in my neighbourhood.
The picture is very sharp and colourfull. Nice work !
Hi Loot!
Nice Croco. Focus and exposure are excellent. We can see great details in its skin. However I can feel some blue-magenta color in its skin. Is it like this or is it neutral gray? Could be a compensation from the auto color balance due to the green grass. In your WS image they seems more neutral. Let me know what's real. TFS

Hi Loot,
This guy could be also called very big and nasty! I have watched many specials about this breed, and they are amazing. You have captured him very well. Very sharp detail really enhances the texture of the skin.
Looks great! (from a distance)

You two must have had a wonderful day - very spoilt I think, and real treat for you. PtL.
This fellow is nicely decorated with the greenery too. What a great shot Loot, very sharp and I like how his beady eye is looking right at you. Like he's ready for you to trip over or something, and he'll be on you in a tick!!
Very well shown, thank you

Haha, Loot. Your dance moves obviously amused the crocodile.
He seems to have the most benign on his long snout.
Comical pose of this huge reptile decorated with spots of plants. : )
The details on the scales are very sharp and the light is great.
And look at ALL those teeth!
Great shot and TFS. : )

Hi Loot,
Excellent photo with great sharpness and details. The use of the flash works perfectly. I do agree with Athila on the magenta color.
This must have been a great day for your wife and you and how nice that the owner gave you the special treatment.
TFS,
Niek
Hi Loot,
What a fantastic opportunity you had. Nice detail in this image, looks like the light was a little low with your use of flash. I'd probably dialled the flash back a little (-1 to 1.7 stops) not sure if you have here?

Hi Loot
What can I say:
Never smile at a crocodile
No, you can't get friendly with a crocodile
Don't be taken in by his welcome grin
He's imagining how well you'd fit within his skin
Never smile at a crocodile
Never dip your hat and stop to talk awhile
Never run, walk away, say good-night, not good-day
Clear the aisle but never smile at Mister Crocodile
You may very well be well bred
Lots ot etiquette in your head
But there's always some special case, time or place
To forget etiquette
For instance:
Never smile at a crocodile
No, you can't get friendly with a crocodile
Don't be taken in by his welcome grin
He's imagining how well you'd fit within his skin
Never smile at a crocodile
Never dip your hat and stop to talk awhile
Never run, walk away, say good-night, not good-day
Clear the aisle but never smile at Mister Crocodile

Hi Loot,
Good detail, colours and sharpness. exposure and lighting are good. Good POV and composition.
The WS post is very good, I'd never get that close to these big old crocs. It must have been a real "Thriller" for you to get so close ;)
Thanks for posting, enjoy the rest of the week.

Hi Loot,
Nice capture here, good details I like it and I like the tiny water plants on it. I consider that BG not helps too much, grasps have many forms and colours like croc skin, maybe a uniform land would be more appropiate, but all depend where the "guy" is.
Very good note and posting.

Hi Loot,
What a fantastic opportunity, although I'm not sure I'd want to get in a pen with one of these, no matter how many people were telling me it was ok! Excellent textures you've captured and detail is sublime, I can see every crease and mark on his skin. Nice detail in the eye too, great work. If I had to pick a nit it would be his camouflage skills :-)
Cheers,
Adrian

Hi Loot,
charming capture of a peaceful and content crocodile appearing to have vegetarian preferences. Your notes - that are very rich and well researched as always from you - tell a different story. And so does your well explaining workshop! Exciting contribution! Thank you!
Best regards,
Peter

Hallo Loot
This is a brilliant photo, with great colours and super sharpness. Looking at this croc with the green leaves here and there on its body it somehow reminds me of the hippy era, I don’t know why but it does. So maybe this is a "flower child croc" out of that time. (I think I am starting to sound a bit silly so let’s leave it there.) This photo is perfect, and you have captured this big reptile in an excellent way, showing the texture of the skin and scales with great precision and clarity. An incredible portrait of this toothy creature. Thanks for sharing.
Love
Anna

Betsie
