Here's the goods for Joe and Chris

Well don't blame me if you guys rushed me, there was a little sun out and I have at least one each confirmed hookups on the two adult pairs so it's picture time! First up, Wilma and Fred, both very similar and they were slow to show affection but her size didn't intimidate him for long. She is in very good shape, pleasingly plump and he finally settled down with her. Fred, then Wilma.

Next is Mildred and Walt, he took to her immediately and left the evidence on the glass, lol! CSI will get him for sure! Mildred, then Walt.

Mildred by far was the best photo op of the day, she's a sweetheart and those eyes!

Next we have Betty and Pebbles, an '07 duo from Chris. Pebbles will be the mliksnake phase and Betty will be the yellow leonis. Betty, then Pebbles. Betty is growing very nicely with Pebbles a little behind but not by much. I guess I got to get a Barney and BamBam to complete the set!

I have to agree with you.......not the best pic of Walt. I always liked his reduced black.

I'm pretty sure he is going into a shed phase and will be as bright as ever soon. I will continue to improve with the camera, it was a bit cloudy out but it was better light than inside. I will mess around with backgrounds as well, wood sometimes tends to dull down a bright subject.

Nice Todd. I really like Fred and Mildred for their classic(to me anyway) old school looks.

Thanks Aaron, keep me in mind for some mexmex this season!

Will do.

But poor Fred is only getting sloppy seconds. I'm pretty sure Walt has some stuff swimming around Wilma.

It's all good, he waited 5 years so I bet he doesn't care, lol! This is the first of his own kind he has ever seen!

awesome Todd! That camera improved your images tremendously. I think your old camera was messed up!

Still miss its' size and portability in the field. But I know you are right, it's just the dinosaur in me that likes to hold on to the old. Here's to new and better things!
