I'm not a big fan of crocs, especially photographing them, but i decided to go really tight and use the lines of the jaw. Fairly happy with the result.
The saltwater crocodile is often claimed to be the largest living crocodilian. Males grow to a length of up to 6 m (20 ft), rarely exceeding 6.1 m (20 ft) or a weight of 1,000–1,075 kg (2,205–2,370 lb).
Females are much smaller and rarely surpass 3 m (9.8 ft). It is also known as the estuarine crocodile, Indo-Pacific crocodile, marine crocodile, sea crocodile or informally as saltie.
The saltwater crocodile is a large and opportunistic hypercarnivorous apex predator. It ambushes most of its prey and then drowns or swallows it whole.
It is capable of prevailing over almost any animal that enters its territory, including other apex predators such as sharks, varieties of freshwater and saltwater fish including pelagic species, invertebrates such as crustaceans, various reptiles, birds and mammals, including humans.

A crocodile, in Belize. My family and I went on a boat ride to a lagoon, while we were there. The lagoon was amazing, because of stunning bioluminescence. I took this photo from our small boat, when our tour leader briefly shined a flashlight on it as we passed in the dark.
