Was climbing up the back side of Table Mountain (Cape Town), and about 1 hour into the climb. Stopped for a break, and while sitting there, noticed a distinctive looking snake in the tree branch next to me (2-3 ft away). Took a photo of it, and continued the climb.

Checked the internet that evening back in the hotel. Turned out to be a boomslang. Probably should've just moved along rather than snapping the pic.
