A garter snake, also known as a garden snake, left an eerie, late-summer memento in Your Shot photographer Kathy F.’s northeastern Pennsylvania flower bed. “I was surprised to see how perfectly the skin had come off and [was] still in the shape of the snake,” she says. “[Garter snakes] are very common in the gardens and yards where I live. I placed it on a hosta leaf and took this macro shot to emphasize the details of the snake's skin.”
