Got lucky that, while visiting River Walk Park in Jacksonville, North Carolina, there was a fairly decent sized alligator that kept swimming back and forth for quite a while. I managed to get several fairly decent shots. This one was one of my favorites.
I loaded this into a group called The Art of Meddling, and it was rejected. The picture is a very good example of what you get when you meddle.

Glad I was already in my car before the heavens opened. It went incredibly dark, but it didn't last for very long, and the sun was soon out again.
I just messed about with the photograph of a luscious, large green tree against a nice blue background with the clouds, but I decided that was boring, so this is what I did to it.
I'm going to be trying this again because I rather like the outcome of this on my lavender in the garden, which has finished for the summer now, so I couldn't go and do it again.

Nice catch. You ever go to Alligator River Kyle? There is a 12 footer that hangs out on the canals between the pond and Milltail on Long Curve. I have a 5 day Pettigrew/Pungo trip planned in the new few weeks. There has been a few sightings of the wolves at Pungo recently. I'm hoping the beans are coming up, if so, bears everywhere.
Thanks! I haven't been around the Alligator River for photography. I would love to do a photo trip to the Pungo and the ARNWR and that whole area. The only time I've been to the alligator river is when I'm crossing it on 64.
It's about time for the beans to start growing. Bears will start moving during the day. I'm hoping to catch it at the right time.
Cool. I’ve always wanted to photograph the wildlife out there.
