to me the most striking feature of this photo is that so much of it is out of focus, and for that it does not appeal to me even though I can find no technical shortcomings
I suppose i would try a slightly different viewpoint here, so that the snake's head isn't right in fron of its body. Also the color of the guy's face is somewhat unnatural.
Very nice focus! The composition is excellent. The background is a bit distracting but definitely helps keep the picture on topic. This would make a nice picture with a monotone background too. Good luck!
Condro?, or emerald? - I always have a hard time with that. The fact that it's on a hook makes me think emerald . The DOF is too shallow for my tastes. I would have like to have seen the snake hanging more vertical.
I see this as workihng better with a horizontal cropping: eliminate the human mouth, in other words. It would be just a bit undersquare then, and our focus would go more easily where it wants to settle in; on the snake's face.
