Wummer said this is one of his favorite photos he has ever taken.
“I took this photo using a flash because I wanted to illuminate their eyes for the perfect effect,” Wummer said in an Instagram post. “I use the Canon wide-angle lens and I still couldn’t get all the gators into the photo.”
He said there were so many alligators in the swamp that he couldn’t fit them all in one photo. Click here to see more photos or check out his YouTube channel .
