Hi everybody,
thougth I'd share a few pics of one of my favorite boas, Hank. I took all of these pics outside in a corner of my house that is completely blocked from the sun (I chose that spot because its also completely blocked off from my neighbors view), so to get some sunlight over I set up a large wall mirror in the middle of the yard and reflected the suns rays over into the corner . unfortunately this made things a little to bright and washed out his really soft bluish purlpe facial and side colors( I have yet to be successful in capturing those colors on film)- but other than that the colors turned out okay. this is his very light white color phase, other times he is very yellow. let me know what you think.


heres a really close up tongue shot


heres that same picture uncropped and zoomed out.





full body tongue shot ( see the really crisp shadow under his head? thats from the reflected sun rays hitting him directly in the face lol)



thanks for looking

Jon
