As I shot this unique tree in the Orton pond, my eye caught this gator 10 feet from me. I was taking photos for 5 minutes and this guy never made a ripple in the water. Spooky!

IMHO - If you had more processing and greater tonalities and contrast, some dodging and burning you would enhance your picture. Just an opinion.

I'm looking at images to see if I can see a story or not within the image before checking out the title... for this one... I think the title tells more of a story, as I honestly wouldn't have realized that was a gator on my own. Nice image... but I think for it to tell a story the gator would have had to be featured more prominently.
