I was shooting this beautiful Oriental Whip Snake.....

when suddenly it made a forward jerk. I thought that it was pissed off with this "paparazzi" shooting away. I jerked back and then I realised that it had caught a Gecko! Oh.....lunch time!

the Gecko did not struggle for long before the snake's venom kicked in and was slowly swallowed head first.
