Battersby Green Snake Portrait

I was called by a colleague at school as this snake was looking through the window of his house. I duly captured the snake, which is harmless. I set up an impromptu studio in a classroom by putting a branch in the middle of four tables and put the snake on one of them. He climbed on the branch straight away where I had a good photo session. I released the snake in my garden.
