I decided to get out more shoot more photo's.
Nick and Myself Headed out the other day for a couple actually.
Some photo's , some snakes and some good times.
This is almost more so an editorial with a collection of images than just the animals we encountered along the way.
It's interesting what you can achieve by looking at the smaller things and giving them some attention.
