This was the first time ever that I have photographed, let alone seen a venomous snake in the wild. Many of my friends in the UAE had already made their HDD full of images from the deserts of many wonderful snakes and little critters which kept me hounding them with details and images. My trip came last October 16, my 1st trip was on. We just parked on the trail and bang this venomous beauty posed for us. A really tiny but highly venomous snake with a lightening fast strike.
