Peek a Boo! This is what they locals call a frog snake, it's about 1 meter long and harmless, (Unless you are a frog) l.o.l

Great set as always Michael. Did that little fellow popping out of the bushes give you a fright?

Hi Michelle! I think I scared him more than he scared me, I just got excited about getting the shot! He froze and never moved for almost 2 minutes and then simply backed into the bush.

Thanks Paul! Thailand is a pretty fertile place for insect Macro and nature photography, I'm blessed to be able to spend time there often.

Not to worry my Friend, It's just good to know your feeling better and getting out and shooting again! I don't have as much time as I would like for viewing and commenting on others work myself lately.
Thanks for the Kind Comments!
Michael
