Hmm, not sure what this is, not a snake, not a fish...maybe a backlit shot of Ena Sharples hairnet?!

Heerlijk warme kleuren. Het lijkt op een slang, maar je probeert ons weer beet te nemen ... ben benieuwd wat het is!

@christine: Nee, deze keer heb je gelijk Christine, het is een slang !!!

franz from Baden, Austria

intriguing image, very nice to look at. i'd say it's neither fish nor reptile. part of a lamp(shade), perhaps ?!?

@franz: No Franz ... It's just a little snake, alive ;-))) Thanks ...

gerard1948 from Santiago de Compostela, Spain

The colors are beautiful, I love. But I do not know what it is. Fish or reptile difficult to say.
