THE LITTLE FILE SNAKE EXTRAVAGANZA
When Reid Newell rang the other night and asked me if I’d like hook up with the Cairns boys (Dylan Morley and Nathan) and go looking for a Little File Snake that night, deep inside a muddy mangrove swamp (along with hordes of mozzies, sandflies, the odd bull shark and saltwater croc thrown in), I just asked him, “well, where do I sign?”
Later that night, while we were all head-torching within the mangroves, and with the incessant bellowing of an irate resident threatening to call the coppers if we did not piss off- ringing in our ears, I heard Nathan calmly say- "I’ve got one!" The lady continued her ranting and while I couldn't see her through the inky blackness, I could just tell she was blue in the face..
We all were so elated with this beautiful snake that the myriad insect bites, stinking mud coverage and each being labelled a sex offender was needless to say, completely worth it!
So here we have a few portrait images of one absolutely stunning Little File Snake (Achrochordus granulatus). I hope you enjoy this amazing snake as much as we did!

This is a picture from my roundtrip through Idaho during my recent trip to the US. You might find some dust and scratches on these pictures, which comes from the NIK Silver Efex Plug In. The original RAW file was captured with my infrared 700nm converted Nikon 1 V1.
