Snappy Handbags!
Featured in Australia Your Standing In It group, 21st June 09
Captured (not literally)! at the Daintree Mangroves Wildlife Sanctuary. I did get some shots of wild crocs on the Daintree river banks but couldn’t/wouldn’t get close enough for a decent shot ;D
The title came from a fellow bubbler who told me to look out for ‘Snappy handbags’ on my travels in Far North Queensland!

Love the overhead viewpoint and I too wouldn’t get any closed than this Tai, wonderful details on them, I must say the skin looks better on them than on a handbag though,

great minimal composition & minimal colours… the olive like green & the silverish grey work really well together… It’s good that your models behaved for you here ;)
