I like how the photo turned out, but to me, this is the end of weeks of searching, many miles hiked, hundreds of miles on the road, and way too many of gas station burritos from Carlsbad, NM. I found it with my sister, so it was even better.

Beautiful capture!
That’s one of the best pics of a Blacktail i’ve seen. Beautiful background, the snake is the central point, but it’s not the whole picture. Of course, the Blacktail is one of the most beautiful rattlers of all.
