Is this Golden Snake Real or a Hoax?
A photo of a beautiful and unbelievable snake with bright gold skin has surfaced online. Is this golden-colored snake real or a hoax?
The photo was altered for an online contest.
This impressive photo editing was done for the worth1000.com contest called Alternate Materials: Gold, Adding the Midas touch which took place several years ago. The snake picture in question ranked 2nd place among a field of impressive entries.
The contestant who created the gold-textured snake can take pride that his creation has become something of an urban legend.
