Negative Tension
dig. neg., adjusted for sharpness. This beautiful creature was crossing the lane yesterday when I got home, and was a very accommodating subject. I was so amazed at the muscle and tension of the muscle while it held perfectly still.

love the crop... how to explain how i see this... it's so pleasing to the eye, the curves of the snake are gentle and your processing makes it glisten. very zen like.

Nelson-I like the effect here; the abstract patterns are interesting, and I like the contrast between the muscle tension and ground.
