Was this just his eyes adn silly tongue peeking out of the water to breath...he is beautiful...my dad had a big pond on the property where I was raised....he grew bull frogs in it and the snakes came in to eat the frogs...they were thick there...he had and awful time getting rid of them.

good job you have only put it on here in a small file or im sure it would have be stolen! I belong to a few photography sites and have sold a couple of shots. Do you have this pic in a full sized file as Im sure it would sell. If so I can let you have details if you want
beautiful capture
