Snake

Jingtai County, Baiyin City, Gansu Province, China.  This is a section of mountain road leading to the Yellow Stone Forest.

Looks ever-so-much like the garter snakes we used to have in our yard when I was growing up in Minnesota.  They seem to be less common these days.

The photo is from a remarkable gallery posted at The Atlantic of winning entries in the Sony World Photography competition.
