Bear with me as I figure my camera settings out the hard way (lots of tinkering and some truly atrocious pictures I won't admit to taking).
If anyone more experienced with picture taking would like to give me some helpful tips, it'd be appreciated. I'm using a Kodak EasyShare C743 (christmas gift!). I can't figure out how to take a picture with the flash and not wash out what I'm taking a picture of. Some of the problem, I'm sure, is how close the camera is to the subject, but there's gotta be an exposure setting that'll work too.
Anyway, here's Periscope The Photogenic Python 
I have used my primitive photo editing software to "fix" the pictures a bit.


That much bigger snake in the background is Darwin, who is ridiculously attached to Periscope and not only follows her everywhere in the tank, but if I take her out and not him, he will "pace" the tank until I put her back.

Anyway, thanks for looking!
