Ugghhh!!!! Good composition, depth of field, textures and tone - but not quite dappled enough for me. Over all very nice though!

Not much dappled light here but I love the shot.

it could have been better if the entire picture was in focus.

Great snake, good coloration and interesting composition. Shame no legs. ;-) Good luck.

The picture is a bit dark, a range in colors would have made it more interesting.
05/26/2008 08:17:17 PM
Nice pic, you have to look twice to see the snake.

Love it but don't see the dappled light for this contest. Enter it again!

I like how thte lizard is peeking around the tree
05/23/2008 09:16:03 AM
Good shot i like how you did this photo

really nice capture; i love your DOF here and the details of the skin and bark.... really nice color range (did you hold a card behind the bark or is this inside?- it'll be interesting to find out!!) nice use of light here to highlight features and the shadows are subtle but lovely as well! beautiful capture :)

great tones and texture - intense capture of something so small - nice.

Sorry, not really seeing dappled light in this shot.
05/22/2008 02:42:22 PM
Dappled or not dappled, the lighting is great.
05/22/2008 01:13:31 PM
Oh... I think if the lizard was more in focus, instead of the tree it would've help this picture a lot. Dappled light is barely visible, but the detail in lizard's head is very, very good. Also the tree texture, however it is more prominent than the main subject.

Very cool shot. It's nice to see an image that uses more subdued colors.
05/21/2008 08:11:44 PM
OMG! this could have been SO KILLER. A bit shallow on the DOF.

This is not dappled light in my opinion - dappled light is light shining through several small apertures, functioning as pinhole cameras, creating circular images on the ground. Sorry, did not vote on this one.

great shot but needs more dappled light
05/21/2008 10:08:46 AM
Very dark picture but i find it interesting with all the textures that are shown through the lighting
