A Plot

A film would play whether people are watching or not; this seemed right to a thin long snake far atop a tree. Its story continued when my macro lens was in action.
 
The effect, I know, would not be magnetic as the pictures taken were heavily cropped, though a mosquito was involved later.
 
But this would be dramatic if the bent proboscis of the mosquito could be visible, (ah, biting a wrong target) and best used by a storyteller.
 
It presence was never felt somehow, otherwise the snake would be sorry for being born without a pair of hands.

  6. I can't believe you saw that moment, and not only that captured it with your camera. Better the mosquito bite the snake than you! (I'm more afraid of mosquitos than I am of snakes in some ways.)

  11. Besides being such a marvelous story teller, you are a wonderful photographer. The picture of the mosquito on the snake should become a classic.

  19. A snake knows its role and does not have to rehearse although this mosquito might need some practice.

  24. lol, the snake is sure sorry for not having a pair of hands to "clap" and punish the mosquito.

  26. I just had to tell you how wonderful that first picture is. The second one is good too, but that first one caught a special moment.

  27. Hmm- would a mosquito bite a cold-blooded creature? Very strange.

  28. Should I say lucky mosquito or poor snake? :D Either way it's a wonderful capture of an unusual encounter!
