Cool shot! I like how certain spots are lightened up by the sun. The two alligators in parallel look funny, don't know why :) Great finish for a Free Study!
I love the contrasty lighting here. Adds to the tension one would feel if coming upon these beasts in the woods. I would say I would like to see it with a lower perspective, and perhaps closer, but then again, maybe I wouldn't.
I really like the shadowy areas in this shot...I think it would be very moody if the light on the alligators was a little less bright. On the whole, it makes a nice scene and evokes an almost eerie mood for me.
