Thank you, Sid! You're very kind..... but I have to tell you, it's a mock-up.
The water is in a pie dish.... the reflected greenery is herbs from the supermarket. The picture is taken indoors!

Nothing fishy, LeAnn. I'm being perfectly honest. Here is an earlier attempt (using a Florida Blue). At this point I hadn't found a way to make the reflection dominate the water..... so you can clearly see the pie dish!

So what kind of pie did you end up baking then????

(I'm amazed... I might even be forced to say... that was brilliant, James!!)

Re: May 2008 Photo and Captions Comments Thread
So now I'm thinking about this... wouldn't it be fun to set up a natural looking swimming tank... part land, part water, just to put them in once a week and let them swim if they so choose... (wheels turning!!) It could be planted so when the snakes aren't in it it's just a nice looking terrarium.
