Though I don't have any ringed pythons (yet! *grin*), I did get a chance to handle an adult at a show last fall (came real close to buying him but money was tight, really wish I had now). I had always heard how 'drab' they got as they matured. Well, I will grant that he was no longer orange and black like the juveniles but he was amazing! He had turned sort of a metalic olive color with the black bands and the irridescence just can't be caught on film. The whole snake just glowed with a rainbow, almost a halogram effect over the whole snake. Needless to say, I was kicking myself for not buying him at the time. I contacted the dealer the following Monday but he'd sold by the show's end. Nuts!
