In this portrait, a Philippine pit viper (Trimeresurus flavomaculatus) poses against a stark black background at the Avilon Zoo in Montalban, Rizal, Philippines. The snake's intricate scales, a mesmerizing blend of brown, green, and yellow, glisten in the studio lighting, creating a vivid and colorful contrast against the monochromatic backdrop. The pit viper, a venomous reptile native to the Philippines, is depicted in a side view, its head turned slightly away from the camera, giving an air of mystery and allure.
