Working on Photo Skills

I was testing out different backgrounds and lighting and since I don't exactly post much I figured I would post a few pics.

The hypo pic is actually an older pic, I'll wait till he sheds to get a good pic of him in the sunlight.

I kinda like the Blue and the white under sunlight, and in case you are wondering the blue and the black are a sheet from the back of an aquarium... Blue on one side black on the other... enjoy

I like the second and third one best, myself. That blue is a bit harsh for me, but I'm not a photo expert. Nice pics, btw. :D

i like the first one in terms of... art.. lol
doods, totally get your hands on photoshop and you can sass up any photo. ;D

I like the second one best, the pale almost pastel colors on the background are very flattering!

I gotta agree with Sheree on this one. That second picture is beautiful!

I'll agree that the halogen light on white seems like the best color - although you might think about photographing the same snake in each background/lighting combination so that you rule out favoring the snake itself from picture to picture. =)

the first or second pic should be entered for BPOM!!!!!!!!https://ball-pythons.net/forums/images/icons/icon6.gifhttps://ball-pythons.net/forums/images/icons/icon12.gifhttps://ball-pythons.net/forums/images/icons/icon14.gif

Nice photography!

Great pics....I'm such a shutterbug myself....my boyfriend asks me all the time whether I take pictures of anything other than snakes :D !! What kind of camera are you using? Is it digital? I think all the pictures are good, but there's something about sunlight that just seems to bring out the gold in a BP's eyes that a camera's flash just doesn't seem to get. Also, that last one looks almost exactly like one of my babies (Gambit) from last year's clutch :)

Thanks all, I'm still working on my skills..... the funny thing is that I didn't get into photography until I got into snakes...Type of camera: Digital Kodak Z7590

I agree I'm waiting on my hypo male to shed so I can get some sunlight photos and compare. Right now I'm thinking some morphs and color variations seem to do better in different types of light, But we shall see...
