A good wildlife subject - but the image itself has some serious issues: a) the background is way over exposed b) the big pipe is very detracting c) The black triagle shape at the top is detracting d) the green leaf is ok, but should not be cut off e) you need to use more of the alloted file size.

Background seems a little washed out and the fence and pipe are distracting. Then again, it doesn't look like a snake I'd want to relocate to better photographic location.

Nice work in trying to capture the range of light between the shadow and highlights. I must be honest that the image does not do much for me, though the subject is right on for the topic. Good luck!

I like the composition of this shot. Interesting lines. It seems a bit overexposed in the top left however. Good luck on the challenge.

colors a bit dull, might benefit from some more postediting.
