Olive Python 1

Another photographer found this Olive Python on one of the ledges in Circular Pool. It was very hard to photograph, I had to bump the ISO to 800 to get anywhere near enough shutter speed, while hand-holding and manual focussing. I ended up using a nearby stick as an improvised monopod. Shot wide open to maximise shutterspeed.
