Judges' comments:
The snake is nicely in focus; consider cropping in more
Maker's notes:

This photo was taken on the marsh trails near Myrick Park. The Snake slithered right in front of me and I was able to snap the image just before it was out of sight. I left the image at the original size and did not chose to crop in tighter, I like the way the taller grass frames the snake. I did add a vignette to draw the eye more into the center of the photo. Taken with Nikon D7200 with 55-200 kit lens.
