The image shows a close-up of a snake coiled up on the ground. The snake appears to be a viper, with its body facing towards the right side of the image. Its head is turned slightly to the side, and its tongue is flicking out as if it is tasting the air. The body of the snake is covered in a pattern of black and white scales, with some areas appearing darker and others lighter. The grass around the snake's body is dry and brown, and there are a few small plants and twigs scattered around.
