Story of Capturing this Image As close as this capture appears, is exactly the distance from my face. All that separated us was a school fence that went 2 ft down into swamp bed. As the belly expands and it starts to hiss, that is when they leap for you in hopes for a meal. As this crockadile leaped for me (literally pushing the camera's lens hood into my face is the mila-second before when I snapped this shot. This was taken at a private reptilian farm in Tampa, Fl. Two men behind me told me after shooting this, I went from a kneeling position 3 ft straight up in the air and 3 ft back. That type of movement was from pure adrenaline alone.
