“I made this image at Myakka River State Park in Sarasota, Florida, this past spring. There had been no rain in the river valley for quite a while, and the waters were at drought level. I found this guy in a shallow depression in the riverbed, along with some trapped fish, and knew I had a good chance for an evening shot with flash.”

Yes it is. Usually, the flash/red eye ruins a photo. Not in this one.

Wonderful…I hope the poor guy made it until the next rainfall. Love the eye reflection in the water! I personally am the anti-Ansel Adams. Give me a $10,000 camera and I will take a picture of my thumb!

LOL… Oh, I’m sure the $10k camera owners have taken some very strange shots. Mine is just $900, but definitely have taken some weird ones.
The eye reflection is awesome!
