Once again an EXCELLENT post by Tony.

I would just like to add of course its about you! It's about each and every one of us KEEPERS much moreso than the snakes. If it was about the snakes they would be in the wild, photographed and left to be a wild animal and not being kept in a solitary cage, or being FORCED to live in a group setting, or selectively bred or hybridized, or whatever we as keepers CHOSE to do with these snakes that we all have a passion for.

Saying that it's all about the snakes seems to just be a justification for doing what WE CHOSE to do: keep, observe, provide choices (many, or just a few), breed, etc. All of us keepers have different motivations, amounts off time to spend, and reasons for keeping, etc. What works great for one just might not be the answer for all. Unfortunately at times I believe many don't agree with that fact.
