Ray, I really like the first image.. nice job buddy..

The second needs to be focused back just a hair more to get the eyes, however its a great comp.

The last is very nice too.

Chad... cool of you to critque, and much appreciated! Yes, I wish I had the eyes in focus on the second, but it was moving, and a really tough shot to get... wish I had the D3 @ 800 iso, for more speed!

Next time!

I didn't like the circle around the head on this one, so I just messed with it a bit... worse or better?

Not much for snakes Ray,

Personally I think you left the best one on your site - - -

Needless to say Maria with a snake around her neck.

# 1 or 4 would be my top pick. Either version works for me.
