Photographing the big ones

Anyone got any advice? Between trying to wrangle the snake and keep it from going where it isn't supposed to be and manning the camera I can't get a worthwhile shot to save my life.
In a related note my large retic is now on the top shelf of my towel cabinet and shows no sign of coming down *sigh* I have to wash those towels again now.

I put mine on the floor of my bathroom where its 68-70 degrees sometims colder. They cool down fast on the tile and then you can take a pic when there 70 degrees. they dont like to move very fast when there that cold. All this only takes 10 min or so depending on the size of the snake. mine are 8-9 foot long and it will take like 10 min form them to slow down. I dont do this ever unless i need to take a pic. Dont let them get to cold or keep them that way for too long.
