So if there is anybody else out there like me, this post pertains to you. I am not the best when it comes to capturing good photos of snakes, especially trying to capture their color. I always see people post about top notch cameras, and how to use the white light feature with flash/no flash, but it's all chinese to me....

So I bought my girlfriend a new digital camera for christmas, gave it to her last night. I of course experimented with it a little bit, and WOW. It is a kodak, 12 megapixel digital camera from Best Buy. I was finally able to capture the red in some of the snakes I have been bragging about but could never really show off because the pictures dont show it.... until now. I used the close-up mode for taking the pics, with a flash.

This is a holdback of mine from June 2006, from an argentine female to an albino male. These 2 are sisters, and look at the difference in red!



and here's her sister
