Those are cool. I'm not much into albinos but these are neat and pretty high contrast.

Very nice Jimmy!,..those two are coming along really well!

BTW,...are you KIDDING ME??, those pics look fine!,.....think about some of the morph pics people keep asking you and I to identify that are all washed-out and blurry,then want to know the specific genotypes/phenotypes that are involved..MAN!..hahaha!

aaaaaannnnnddd what exactly is wrong with these pics?

good detail
good view of the snakes

maybe not "dramatic", but if your goal was to show off the snake, you succeeded.

perhaps we can replace the paper towel background with lava...

I know what you mean about color inaccuracies. I work in the printing industry and color calibration is a must. Most people don't realize just how far off a monitor really is until they see one that's been calibrated. Even when one SEEMS like it's right, it's still WAY off.

You can perform a home calibration by making a paint document with the colors Red, Blue, Yellow and Green and then going to your monitor's Menu and adjusting the color manually while comparing it to a actual red blue yellow and green swatches. This will get your monitor closer to actual color.

You can fine tune your color by looking at photos with people and checking the skin tones.

This is in no way a true calibration, but it should get your photos looking passable. But keep in mind that 99% of monitors are not calibrated. So even if it looks good on your screen, it may not on anyone else's.

Anyway, hope you like the new "dramatic" snake pic
