What they said wow

Thanks all!

Quite easy to take such pictures though.... The hardest part is making sure the snakes sit still...
The rest is a clear white background with decent lighting (In this case, external flash with the flash bouncing of a white ceiling)
90mm macro + Nikon D90 do the rest. Editing is kept to a minimum.

It's not easy if you don't have a camera!! lol

[reptileparadise]

I have to agree I think...

Make sure they sit really still and make a nice drawing?

I've tried some blank background shots, my cameras flash and shutter just doesn't get the job done.

[reptileparadise]

With manual settings or automatic? Automatic won't do the job because the camera recognises pure white as overexposed area. Small spots won't hurt, but with such a big surface in white, the camera will do everything in its power to make it grayish instead of pure white... Either that, or the whole picture will become overexposed...

[RedSidedSPR]

Both manual or automatic. Mine has limited settings for that.

The whole pic is overexposed, yes.

It's just a slightly outdated 8mp compact digital from Olympia. While it takes some pretty darn good photos (especially with sunlight) the flash with that stuff just ruins the shot.

I know I should know this but the second picture down is a ? garter

[reptileparadise]

Its an orange T. s. pickeringii.
The breeder and I are trying to prove this out as a possible new mutation. The adult male is as orange as ... well, an orange!
