A photo of a mostly submerged alligator in water completely covered in brilliant green duckweed. Only the top of its head with the eye mounds and the tip of its nose with its nostrils are visible above the duckweed. The sun is low in the sky and behind the alligator so that its head casts a long shadow. It faces mostly left but is turned slightly toward the camera so that we can see one of its golden eyes, which is lit up and shining in the sun with the pupil closed to a tiny vertical slit.
