The Moment After the Click | American Alligator Meet the American Alligator up close and personal; eyeball to eyeball at Everglades NP. American Alligators are black; all black. Yes, I was close, but not too close, lying on my belly to capture this image. The 70-300mm set at 70mm is still 189mm after the Nikon 1 V1 crop factor. Yes, that’s still close. Clicks! After several clicks, I noticed several gators beginning to move toward me. Although gators generally move rather slowly, they can really move out fast. They were gathering on three sides around me. Time to go look at my images later in post. For the whole story with all images, see The Moment After the Click | a 7 Image Story.
