First albino of the year. It's overexposed. Albinos can be a pain to shoot.

(CJBianco explaining the origins of the BP market.)
"In the beginning Bob created the Ball Python market. And the market was without morph, and wild traits were upon the industry. And Bob said, Let there be morph, and there was morph. And Bob saw the morph, that it was good; and Bob divided the morph from the wild trait. And Bob called the morph Albino, and the wild trait Normal. And the Albino and the Heterozygous Albino were the first investment.

Are you using a dSLR? A hot shoe flash really helps when shooting albinos. Bouncing the flash off a white ceiling will soften the light a ton

No. I took it outside in the shade. I find this produces great pictures, but with light subjects like the albino, I can get "washed" out areas. Nice snake BTW!
