Hmm...

It looks very similar to my Kunishar Rat Snake. So I am going to make a guess that it's a rat snake, but I could be completely wrong.

Hey there...much sorrow on the DQ...

I am curious, just what you did that was considered DQ'able?

"Gaussian blur a bit, sharpened, leveled, desaturated a bit and added a border."

None of those seem to be DQ'ble - are they???

Thanks...

Although very imperceptible, there had been the dried remains of a drop of water on the lens. You can see right at the eye meets the nose. Sadly, I did not notice until after the shoot. The end result was the loss of a LOT of really great photos.

The spot was in the center of the lens too...so the key focus of most shots wound up being blemished. Lost half my takes... :(

300 shots and several ants.

WHAT I WANT TO KNOW IS WHETHER ANY ANTS WERE SERIOUSLY HURT OR INJURED IN THE FILMING OF THIS PHOTOGRAPH!!!

This is probably going to score really low...

Don't be discouraged. DPC is very harsh to blurriness and out of focus shots. The crop is a bit too tight.

However, for all the harsh criticisms I've received and low scoring entries. Realize, that a year of being on this site improved my photography by leaps and bounds. Enough so that numerous friends have commented on it. Including one friend who used to be a photographer commenting that I've improved quite a bit.

You do realize, that this qualifies as "cruelty to animals"
