The image shows a swampy area with tall trees and plants surrounding a body of water. In the center of the image, there is a large alligator resting on a rock in the water. The alligator is facing towards the right side of the frame and its body is partially submerged in the shallow water. Its head is turned towards the camera and its mouth is open, as if it is about to take a bite out of something. The water is still and there are a few small rocks and debris scattered around the area. The trees in the background are bare and have no leaves, indicating that the photo was taken during the day.
