And, here's the one I took at the same time. I like your head-on shot
better. I got down on the floor and shot upwards to get this one, and I
don't much like the look up the fellow's nostrils. :-) Still, he's a
fascinating snake in that he had climbed up a small limb they had in his
enclosure. This type climbs trees and helps himself to birds' eggs and
nestlings.

Ralf showed me that I _could auto focus through glass and that I _could use
400 spd film. We had a great time, despite the cold and rain when I had
promised him nothing but blue skies and intense sunshine.
