Description
WHAT LURKS IN THE SHALLOWS
A 12 foot alligator in the shallow waters of the Florida Everglades at night. I was photographing the moon when I accidentally bumped into my tripod and knocked it over. I heard something in the water next to me and it was then that I noticed that I had attracted the attention of one of the bigger gators in the area!
I try not to use flash on wildlife if I can avoid it. Sometimes it means losing a great shot but those are the breaks. I use a dimmable LED for night shots if I have to but didn't have it with me this time. I made an exception this time and used my flash on the lowest possible setting to get a usable image. I apologized profusely afterwards but the gator didn't seem to mind ;)
