29 Of The Most Impressive Shots From The “inFocus” Nature Photography Of The Year 2022 Contest
#13 “Heat Tasting”, Jury Selection, Animal Portraits
Sandeep captured the flick of an Anamalai Pit Viper’s tongue using the rear curtain sync mode, whereby the flash is fired at the end of the exposure, thereby capturing the complete motion trail. Pit vipers stick out their tongue to collect scents, and when drawn back in, it comes in contact with the Jacobson’s organ on the roof of the mouth, helping in smell detection.
