First snake experience

My best friend and his family came over this weekend, and although he busts my chops for my snake habit, he did not hesitate to hold a snake (Dr Waffles) for the for the very first time. Now to recreate this shot every year and watch my friend shrink 😂

Haha, he might not have the stones to hold Dr Waffles in a few years!

Seriously, that is a great idea; a whole new new spin on doing a progression thread.

That's a nice story, a good friend checking out something you are passionate about.

Well done, well done!

that is an awesome idea!

Another one!
This time my mother-in-law, who's always been supportive yet squeamish, just couldn't resist the Dr's charms!

oh man, i have this one neighbor who is terrified of snakes, i've been trying to convince her to have a controlled first encounter for years, i really think it would be cathartic.

her face is full of that same shock, wonder, awe, inspiration and a dash of nerves that reminds me of my early days in the hobby. lovely moment you captured. :)
