This was a low water day. Which can also mean a day of closeup Alligator portraits.
I even got one to smile.

For the photographers out there this was shot at 150 mm.
Many of the ‘big guys’ were along the bank. I was on the dike a bit above them. This is a common spot, and shot. But it does have drama.
150mm is close enough! That smile makes him appear friendly! 😂
When they are this big 150 mm is close enough for sure. 🙂
