Cabbage Patch Snake

Not what I was hoping to see in the vegetable patch! I think it's a common gartersnake, to the best of my knowledge, and if so, non-venomous.

It was quite still when I first saw it, probably enjoying the sun. Not very long, maybe 18" or so. I managed a couple of frames before it scurried away behind the greenhouse. 

Fantastic to be able to use Denoise now without having to create a dng file. Should I go back through my catalog and delete files where I previously used Denoise? Maybe it can be automated.
