15th Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Natural World
Jararaca

I was photographing an abandoned house near my farm when a Jararaca moved beside me. I had not seen her camouflaged in the bush. These snakes are very poisonous and we should be very careful with them. But they are very beautiful snakes.
