I would have thought at that f stop, both snake heads would have been in focus.
FWIW I'd crop out the lower foreground green splash.

I took the family up into the mountains today.  We took the cameras
and went for a hike.  We were looking for a specific geocache (for
those GPS'ers) in an area with lots of gold mining tailings.  So lots
of broken up rock was all around.  My wife called me to come over near
her.  She had discovered several snakes all intertwined (I believe
they hibernate that way) wiggling around.  It turned out to be one
large snake (mother?) and 4 small snakes (offspring?).

I got the camera and took several shots.  Not sure which one I like
best, but here is one of them:

Pentax *istD, A 70-210/4, handheld
ISO 800, 1/750 @f/11.0

Converted from Raw to 16 bit Tiff in C1.  Cropped from horizontal to
vertical and sized/sharpened for web using PictureWindow Pro.

Comments welcome.

Bruce
