fresh shed + beautiful day =

you guessed it ICE CREAM SUNDAES!!!

lol just kidding no really ive been wanting to snap off a few on a nice sunny day, and Torpaz shed last night so i figured he wouldnt mind volunteering for the job

i tried two diff surfaces to see if it would make a difference so let me know what ya think

first up a piece of drywall, how exciting huh

next a piece of "honey oak" melamine

i dont know if the background really made much difference in how the over all picture came out but i think i got better angles on the melamine

Now i have a craving for Ice Cream Sundaes! Seriously, those are absolutely some beautiful animals you have. I wish i lived in a warmer climate these days, so i could get some great pictures of my BRB.

I live in Massachusetts, so right now it is getting way too cold to even think about taking my guys outside now, but before i know it, it will be spring, and maybe then i'll be able to get some really nice pictures of my animals Especially my BRB!

I live in a small town in Southeastern Mass, Halifax. Not exactly the Mecca of the state, but i like living here, though the weather can be unpredictable, on occasion. We didn't get any snow, thank goodness, i am so not ready for that!!! Oh, and totally o/t here, but i just remembered i have an extra snake cage in the barn!!! Hmmmmmm, it would be such a shame to let it stay out there and gather dust!
