C'mon Joe, fill the frame...get closer!

Well Chauncey, I think my 450 full frame equivalent filled the frame nicely. It provides a nice safe working distance for these big guys. Chuckles at... get closer.

And get down on his level.

Hello John, thank you for viewing and commenting. The two of you... you and Chauncey, full of advice.

Whoa Joe! You can almost see what he had for lunch, or if he hasn't eaten yet, where he's gonna put it!

Don't look now but I doubt a 20' canal would slow him down much if he decided to come lick your hand!

Hello Frank, thank you for viewing and commenting. They are slow in the winter and the day was cool, summer would be different.

Great shot, Joe. But... ummm... I haven't lived down south in a while but as I recall gators can swim rather well. That canal wasn't much protection

Thanks Dan, very much appreciated. As I wrote to Frank, the day was cold for Florida which slows them down.
