[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Madras snake park has fish eating river crocodiles from Nepal, Burma, India, Pakistan and Bangladesh. This one has a larger snout bump, then all the others in the display, seems to rule here!

Long snouted Gharial crocodile (Gavialis Gangeticus)

Very unusual Specimen indeed! Good Comp, POV and detail. TFS, Sheriff

Great shot, interesting subject and note. However this is about as close as I want to get to these fellows!

Hello Gloria!
Very intersting crocodiles capture.I liked POV,
lighting,framing and composition a lot.TFS...:-)

Gloria,
Thank providence that you are back in the US.
This is a great capture.
They are harmless to man; we, as children, my brother &
self, used to swim in the river in Valpoi, in Goa, India
with these critters. They never, ever tried to attack us.
Lovely frame.
Shall e-mail you seperately tonight.
Good luck with the b..k.
Fond regards,
Mario.

Hello Gloria,
A funny pose and great details!!
Those teeth are really sharp, impressive tools to grab and hold on to the prey...
Impressive details in the hide and a well composed presentation!
Greetings,
