Chinese Crocodile
 |
|
| [Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note |
The Chinese Crocodile gets its name from the appearance of its tail, which has an enlarged pair of scales running most of its length, similar to the tail of a crocodile. It inhabits only one mountainous province of China, where it lives in and around clear pools of slow-moving, shallow water.
Shot was taken using the camera's macro setting while it was pressed up against the glass. Post processing included contrast and levels adjustments, resizing, and USM. |

Hi Laurie
An ugly dude, well pgotographed, and through glass! Well done. And now I will have to go and do some research, I thought I knew all the croc species. I love the toothy grin and the small hand.
Points all gone.
Great shot very good angle and details.
Well done
