I kind of have to laugh at myself. Somehow behind a camera lens, my fears and paranoia dissipate. I shoot close-ups of things that I wouldn't normally come near. Snakes and bees. You can forget spiders, though. The only time I shot one, I wasn't looking - auto focus was a good thing. :D

Oh my, I don't know if I would have been as brave as you... he seems to be quite big. You certainly got a great shot of him. Super photo!
so it's just a garter snake, right?
Yeah, it's a garter - just a very long one.
