Cool, and they are very good snakes to have around, because they are not poisonous, and other snakes fear them.

Love the lightning strike. Seems like it could use some counter-clockwise rotation.

You were wondering why this didn't do better. Well, there are some things I can add that might be the reason.

First off, the lighting on the girl is fine! Point of view might be a little higher. Her pose is a little forced, also her smile. The background isn't something of my taste (I always think this is a typical American background, but I love black ad white backgrounds ;)) and it's wrinkeled. If you place the model a bit forward, away from the BG, it will get more out of focus and I think that works better.

Well these are some things that come to mind. Not saying it's the truth, but just my humble opinion ;)

excellent photo, it seems like the horizon is tilted a bit.

I like it but your horizon is a wee bit tilted, otherwise I would have given it a 10, I love the lightning capture. 8
