It ain't the prettiest "bokeh", but I like the image nonetheless.

It seems to be a snake with a plan ... going somewhere ... hopefully not my garage, where I saw a big black SOMETHING last weekend ... but I screamed and ran away ... 'cause snakes freak me out ...

Quite right too!

I was having lunch today, watching the screen-with-no-sound that they employ in the local restaurant, and they were showing something on the Yellowstone National Park. (I knew where it was because the title told me.) Don't go there: the bloody animals eat one another! AA must have had a death wish.

Thank you John,
He was trying to get away from me, moving into the trees. Pretty little guy about 4 feet long.
Thanks for the nice comments,
Dave
