RATTLESNAKE - UP CLOSE AND PERSONAL - This photo I took less than a year ago of a live rattlesnake is, if I say so myself, impressive. Why is this so? Well, for one thing, the shallow depth of field and lack of compression of the photo's subject (Ol' Sneaky Snake) indicate that the photo was shot up close and personal. And that indicates that a good deal of danger was involved. Not really. The snake was under containment and the shot was made through glass. There. I fessed up. So is the image less impressive because I didn't put my life in danger? Well, I suspect that that is a matter of individual opinion. LARRY ELKINS - ELKINSPHOTOS FINE ART PHOTOGRAPHY
