Challenge 504: Snake in the grass
I'm indebted to Michael Sinclair for this week's photograph, a close-up of a field of grass. What manner of beasties might be hiding in this verdant meadow? And how hard will it be to conceal them amongst the grass?

High res is here.

Hi Frank,

Actually, I hear this is a real danger in Florida. Your image would be perfect for a public safety poster.

Having spent far too much time last week ..... this week a very simple quickie. If you don't see it at first you're probably looking too hard. Step back .....

Decided on reflection that my original image was too furtive. Here is a more obvious version.

Dog in the Grass
My dog likes to run around in the tall grass looking for something to chase or eat. With her nose down and back or tail sticking up, she reminds me of a shark in the water and the ominous music beat from Jaws.

My son is the inspiration for this weeks challenge. He spends all his non working time at the beach - summer and winter - participating in some type of extreme sport. So its impossible for me to try and reach him on the phone...... this is my answer to the problem lol

I feel a bit off my game - I can't think of anything weird.

The water is a ten framer.
Thanks Anna: it was a difficult one this week even for me!

NB if it doesn't animate very well then hit the Refresh button--it should be fluid!

This seemed like a good idea at the time but I seem to have made hard work of it.

Beware of the Giant Tansy beetles...
