Nice shot! Looks a little like the back of Clyde Butcher's place. The IR treatment is ideal for this setting.

Just beautiful Scott!
Love how that little "island" is highlighted. Really accents the entire frame!

Bet it was fun wandering around the area!
Super composition Scott!

Absolutely! His place is essentially in Big Cypress and I stopped in.

it's hard to imagine wading in with the gators to get the kinds of images Butcher captures nearby.
I stayed dry. And at a distance.

Thank you. Much harder to get a composition than anticipated. It's hard to create focus in chaos!

If you get a chance, do the swamp guided tour - it's great! When I did it it was very dry, so I only waded up to my knees or so; in wet times you'll get wet up to your chest. The interesting thing is, the invasive pythons have eaten all the small game that other snakes like water moccasins and gators might eat, so actually they see these critters rather rarely.

Photographers not included I hope! This is outstanding. Mysterious and forbidding but beautiful and well captured!
