snap_in_the_wild

In photography, sometimes you need a bit of luck! I must admit I was lucky to #capture this #epic moment in #west #ghana, #anomabo. This is the famous #greensnake chasing a #lezard and quickly climbing the closest tree to hide! 📷📷📷

#ghana certainly remains one of my best holidays ever. 🏖️😎🏖️

@eodiop Superb capture. I expect you’ve earned this ‘luck’ by putting in the ‘wasted’ hours.

@dovevalleypotter thank you so much! You're right though - so many hours have been wasted over the years!

The 'wasted' hours were not wasted. They created the opportunity for you make this great photo. Then you took this opportunity. 📸

Kudos for the photograph.

Always wonder how snakes succeed at clinging to the sides of trees. Maybe trees being rounded helps them.

Anybody ever seen a snake clinging to a relatively flat surface like the wall of a house ?

I agree that overall it's not wasted! Thank you so much!

Apparently they have really strong muscles - that allows them to move that fast and to cling onto things! They are odd creatures though! 🤯
