    Alien Eye

    This was shot through dirty glass with a flash. Still not too bad. IMO

    Look through a glass eye.
    Give it a few tries.

    Nice croc, but that's an odd reflection off the water across his eye, though a nice job considering the circumstances you mentioned. Composition and color are really good.

    I agree the eye is sharp and clear, that really helps the shot.

    Nice shot! Only nit is I wish there were a bit more room in front of his nose.
    Keep Shooting!

    Not too bad, indeed!



    (Maybe I'll try some dirty glass )

    Thanks for the comments folks.
    Actually it's a cayman about 4-5 foot long.
    The line across the eye is a flash reflection, likely caused by the on camera flash.
    I'll try it again with my Christmas present (540 hot shoe) and see if I can get some improvement.
    I agree Frog the nose is a bit close to the edge of the frame, but since it was uncropped, nothing I can do.
    I wear glasses making in camera composition a bit harder than I like, so I take the shot. The zoo was busy that day too.
    Got nice green boa shot through glass too. I'll post it later today
