King Cobra

in #killerpix6 years ago (edited)

Here's my submission for the @killerpix Monday Animals contest as well as @photocontests animalphotography contest. A close up of a King Cobra moving in for a closer look.




I shot this macro image with a Canon 5D2 at 100mm, f2.8, 1/60, ISO 1600.

All the photos (unless otherwise noted in the post) were taken by me and are available for sale. If you're interested in buying an image or three, 😃 please don't hesitate to contact me for more details. Thanks in advance!

I am not a big fan of snakes, but this king cobra photo is definitely great!

Thank you for your kind words. I'm not a fan of snakes, either but I couldn't help but to stop to get this guy's photo since he was being so cooperative, lol.

Lucky capture! Great work 8)

Sometimes it's better to be lucky than good 😃 Although I did sit there for 20 minutes so patience is needed too, lol. Thanks for the support!

Wow!... It seems you worked under compromised light... Great shot!

Bingo! You're absolutely correct about the lighting. 😃 Thanks for the kind words and for the support!

Scary! Am always scared of snakes and other cold-blooded creatures, but because you are one of my favorite photographers I have to check this out. Waaa @rayshiuimages

Awww, sorry for the scare! Thank you so much for the kind words, I feel so honored. Thanks for all your support!
