This is the snake my cat caught. I'm comfortable with snakes (despite the title), I just like to conjure up obscure movie/song references. Editing: Color cast fixes, color tweaking, improved saturation, and contrast improvement, including shadow/highlight enhancement and highlight burning.

Editing: Tungsten color cast fixes, color enhancement, dust removal, sharpening, depth enhancement, shadow/highlight fixes and slight cropping.
