Hey all, had a really cool photo session tonight, was working on getting some comparison shots and
pretty much every snake cooperated and held still for pics. Was the most fun photo session Ive ever
had. No chasing down snakes, no "quick snap the pics before it moves". Just arrange, and take pics,
add another snake, take more pics. So, with no further adeau......
I started the session with Rhett, He's a 2006 baby from Will Bird, He Scarlett and Vivian are all
descended from Lamar's Leticia Columbia locality group. They all have tons of blue and purple in
their colors, Rhett shows it the most. They are also loaded with bulseyes and stretched crescents:
I then added in Scarlet for some pair shots
Then one of Scarlet by herself. She's a very orange girl:
And not to be left out, Vivian:
Couldn't resist getting a new pic of Tawney, my Anery female. Love those white crescents, she's keeping
those whoite colors very well, gotta love the sharp line of anery BRB's:
I then shifted gears a bit and pulled out Amber. This girl is stunning, colors are out if this world
and her ocelli (side blotches) have no crescents and the dark fades to a lighter center.
How about some hypo's? This is Mickey, a EBN 2005 male. Very striking colors and thick bold crescents:
Not to be out done, here's Dottie, one of Mike Lockwoods 2004 females. This girl is drop dead gorgeous,
Tangerine colors and even bullseye patterns:
Now's where the real fun begins. Several of the previous individual shots are actually out of sequence,
they were taken as either cropped down from group or even slightly seperated for individual shots. The
following series of pics are all in sequence and for the most part just builds and builds
Amber was already out and staying still so I added in Rhett:
All looking good so added in Mickey
Note, I do change angles fairly often but if you pay close attention, you can see the individual snakes
stay in the same position. Quite unusual for even one to stay but several staying put is soooo cool:
Unfortunately, Rhett didn't want to sit still so he went back away leaving Amber and Mickey hanging out.
This is working out cool so,let's add in Mickey, he thinks he's a ball python, therapy has not helped:
Wow, they are still staying put, let's add in Dottie so we have accross the top, Dottie, Mickey and
Dumbo (all hypo's) with Amber below Mickey:
Now for a little contrast, Not just color, also size and pattern, I added in Zoe and Ziggy (Zoe's
toward the left).
That's where things broke down, Dottie moved, bumped Mickey who also decided to move. Now I'm
scrambling to get them all put away. OK, really only Dottie and Mickey, the rest were still staying put
but I was done.
Isn't that a cool series of pics????
